ONCE again we have a dog walker expecting council tax

payers to foot the bill for the provision of special bins in

which to deposit the mess their dogs produce (Postbag

August 7).

Here's a solution that bears no cost to anyone, take your

dog mess home with you and flush it away, it's as simple

as that or are you averse to carrying the mess with you on

the rest of your walk.

Those of us that are not dog owners have to endure the

foul mess under foot or witness discarded bags in trees or

thrown into bushes.

In the past I have written to Postbag on this subject and

had no objection to my name and address being published

- the result was a petty minded dog owner decided under

cover of darkness to deposit bagged up dogs mess in the

street where I live - so please withhold my name and

address.
