The new dispensers are located at Mowshurst/Millennium Wood, Stangrove Park, and two at the Recreation Ground. The initiative aims to encourage responsible dog ownership and keep public areas clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
Residents are urged to look out for the new “Scoop My Poop” signs. Dog owners are reminded to always pick up after their pets. If a bag has been forgotten, one can be obtained from the new dispensers. Bagged dog waste can be disposed of in any public litter bin, not just those designated for dog waste.
The council acknowledged that the majority of pet owners already do the right thing and expressed appreciation for their efforts. The new dispensers are intended to make it even easier for those who may not currently be complying to do their part for the community.
