Dog Warden Report Autumn 2008

Well folks, the first year has been and gone and I am pleased to say that the dog fouling problem in the village is pretty much under control. I would like to say a big "thank you" to all you dog owners who automatically clean up after your dogs.

The new bin is now in place on Highfield Rise (please make it worth while) and all bins are now being emptied regularly.

There are still the odd few dog owners who seem to believe that the law does not apply to them but I will keep on advertising and issuing bags and fixed penalty notices where necessary.

Finally I would like to say what a lot of lovely people I have met since starting the job. Come rain or shine, I will continue to work hard to maintain the standard of cleanliness for you all.

I can be contacted on 01522 820814 or through the Parish Council for any dog related problems.
