ok I know I have commented on this subject before ,but having just been for a lovely walk with my family and family dog, I was disgusted by the amount of dog poo left in and around the railway land, there are signs at all entrances asking people to respect the area and clear up after their pets. so here is my gripe ,I don't have a garden and always ensure I take poop bags where ever I go and if i have run out i will take plastic bags with me even if i think my dog only wants a wee. so why is it when people take their dogs for their weekly long walk on a sunday afternoon did see 4 people walking dogs on leads not clear up after their pets ,what is wrong with people. there are loads of families down there having picnics and teaching their children about nature and then a dog squats and poops next to them and the owners just carry on like nothing has happened. sort it out people and stop being so gross and tidy up after your pets.

I think dog owners would mostly agree with you. We are the ones most likely to tread in it. It's embarrassing and makes us all look bad.

I think frustrated would be glad that Kettle had indeed trod in it and looked rather embarrassed and silly too!

I noticed all the way round the pells pond was like it today , then there is the poop bags where people have bagged up the poop but then dumped the bag on the edge of the shrubbery. I think that annoys me more tbh. I feel embarrassed to see that people have done that.

I'd be embarrassed if I pooped in a bag and left it by shrubbery. What if one of my neighbours noticed

It really annoys me when people pretend to be decent citizens by picking up after their dogs, then throw the bags into someone else's garden when no-one's looking.

How on earth can anyone have a dog and not have outside space ?

It is very easy, live in town surrounded by amazing countryside and stick to a routine as much as bodily function allows and buy a decent waterproof coat, however that being said, I would love to buy a lovely property with a huge garden, maybe one day I will have the option of living in a big property in my home town.

The overwhelming majority of dog owners are decent folk who pick up - there are always a few who don't and they tarnish the reputations of the decent majority - its the same with anything. I was thinking recently that the Railway Land was actually much better than it had been in the past

Lets ace it most dog owners are selfish , both with poop and the way they let their animals jump up at , lick , scratch , passers by , I'm not a dog lover really but I don't dislike them , it's the owners that are the problem
