The age-old nuisance of dog fouling around Chaffes and Oak Lane has been raised again in messages from residents angry after seeing irresponsible dog owners not cleaning up after their pets.
The Parish Council has placed litter & dog waste bins as well as TiksPac dispensers at the Recreation Ground and near the Paddock in Chaffes Lane and there are bins at other locations around the village where owners can dispose of bagged dog waste.
There really is no excuse for not cleaning up after your dog.
It is an offence to allow a dog under your control to foul a public place and Swale Borough Council has the power to fine dog owners who do not clean up after their dog.
Allowing your dog to mess in a public place and not clean it up is completely antisocial and unacceptable to all residents!
