It used to be bad enough when dog owners let their dogs foul the streets, but I think it is even worse when they pick it up in bags and then dispose of the bags around someone else's property.

Just recently these bags have been appearing around my garage, which is on a council owned garage site. I complained to the local council a few days ago using a form on their website as there did not seem to be a contact number on their website but as of yet I have not had a reply.

Best to use a site called 'fix my street' when complaining to the council.

You could always hang a bag of dog chods on their door with a return phone number. That would get their attention I imagine.

We have bags of dog shite flung over our hoarding nearly everyday....Newton Le Willows, perhaps St Helens Council don't provide enough doggy doings bins?

I've even seen the bags hanging on trees in beauty spots. Why put it in a bag at all, at least it will break down if kicked under the bushes. Again it's "Out of sight, out of mind", somebody else can deal with it.

No excuse. My dog can shite for Scotland! She done three this morning within ten minutes of each other but they're all picked up and carried until I find a bin which is sometimes 2-3 miles.

Councils are far too lenient on this sort of thing.
