Two or three people have told me that there’s more dog mess than usual in the small park at the ends of Sevenoaks, Leyland and Saville Roads in Gatley.

Most dog owners are responsible these days and clean up after their pets, so its disappointing when a minority don’t.  Since this area is commonly used as a play area for young children living nearby it’s of particular concern.

I’ve asked the Council to increse dog warden patrols in that area, and I urge all dog owners to be considerate and put dog mess in the bin at the side of the field.
