Hi All
This is an appeal for help from all responsible dog owners/walkers sick of stepping in or clearing up other peoples dog poo.
This scheme has been trialed in other areas and reading of the results it seems to have been quite sucessful. I would love to set up something like this in Caithness so that people could be empowered by the confidence and knowledge to help prevent a lot of the dog fouling left on our local pavements and parks and walkways. It is a non confrontational way of dealing with irresponsible owners who are not cleaning after their dogs, which actively encourages the public to join forces with local authorities to tackle this disgusting problem we are all faced with while walking down our streets.
Please google green dog walking scheme and have a read (sorry i cant seem to be able to post a link) i would love to hear from any individuals or groups who would like to be involved in setting up this in Caithness.
My office tel no is 01955 607735 or 607737 and email address is Anne.Begg@highland.gov.uk
Look forward to hearing from you
Anne
