Please clean up your dogs’ mess on Downs!

We are lucky enough to live at the bottom of the Downs and take our one hour daily walk for exercise on the Downs.

It should be a pleasure taking in the lovely views if only we could take our eyes off of the ground!

There is so much dogs’ mess on the footpaths the views are missed.

When a dog owner does clear up after their dog why do some of the throw the plastic bag in the bushes or leave it on the ground?

We have also walked behind runners with dogs the owners are oblivious to what the dogs are doing behind them.

The Downs are fast becoming a giant toilet for dogs!

As is said you don’t get bad dogs just bad owners.

To the dog owners who do clear up after their dogs, thank you.
