Dog Fouling

WEST DOWN COMMUNITY PARK

TO ALL DOG WALKERS

 

Under the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime & Policing Act 2014, any person who permits a dog in their charge to foul any area to which the public have access is committing an offence.

Due to the few irresponsible owners who do not pick up after their dogs, the ongoing problem of dogs’ mess is under review.

For the welfare of all users, especially children, the situation is being monitored and, unless it improves, the facility for dogs being permitted to exercise ‘off lead’ on this public site may need to be revoked.

PLEASE HELP TO KEEP THIS RESOURCE BY PICKING AFTER YOUR DOG

We are well aware that this notice does not apply to the majority of dog walkers – but unfortunately the minority are spoiling it for the majority.
