Doggy Mess

Not a pretty sight to be seen on the front page of the newsletter nor, indeed, is it a pretty sight to see on the footpaths of Billericay. These photos were taken on the footpath that links Porchester Road with Arlington Way and then to Rosebay Avenue, footpaths which are frequently used by mums taking their children to Brightside School

 

Anti social behaviour can not be tolerated in today’s society where the population density is high, come to think about it, ASB is not acceptable in any society no matter what the population density. It is the responsibility of dog owners to clear up the mess left by their animals, most do, but it is that irresponsible minority who cause grief.  Perhaps we can appeal to their conscience, ask them to clear up the mess and leave the footpath in a condition they would wish to find it.
