Dog and animal fouling
We are responsible for keeping the city clean and free of litter and we remove dog mess as part of the street cleaning programme. Dog mess is very unpleasant and can carry disease.
What can I do if my street has lots of dog mess?
Report the issue to us so that we can deal with the problem quickly.
What can I do if I witness a dog fouling?
If you witness dog fouling we can investigate.
We need to know:
- the day, date, location and time of the incident
- a description of the person in charge of the dog
- a description of the dog that they were walking
- if they arrived in a vehicle: a description of the vehicle and the registration number
- how far away you were when the incident occurred
- what kind of view you had
- if possible, photographs.
