Dog fouling

You must bag dog waste and put it in either a dog waste bin or a normal litter bin. If you don't, you may receive a fixed penalty notice, or face court action and a fine. We work with District Enforcement to enforce this.

Report dog fouling that needs clearing

If there is a lot of waste or regular fouling in a particular area, please report the issue so that we can clear it:

Report dog fouling for clearance
