WHAT IS the matter with the dog owners of Rainford?

The village is a disgrace with dog mess all around the village and linear park pathways. It is about time these people showed some respect for the village they live in and pick it up.

Dog bags are free from the library, so use them. People should take the responsibility that comes with owning a pet or don’t own one.

I do own a dog and do pick up after it.

Only today someone said to me if more people picked up their pet’s mess the village would not be in such a state.

My reply was it is the few that get the many a bad name.

So have respect for the place you live, yourself and your pet and also for the other people living in the village and clean it up.
