Four Dog Fouling Tickets Issued in One Day as Part of Council Crackdown

Four dog fouling tickets have been issued in one day as Wrexham Council continue to clampdown on those who do not ‘Pick up the Poo!’.

Kingdom enforcement officers issued the fines in Ponciau, Llay, Hermitage and Grosvenor. A fine was also issued for a breach of a Dog Exclusion area in Bradley.

Last month Wrexham Council pledged to crackdown on dog fouling and issued a no-nonsense message to irresponsible dog owners after eight fines were issued in December 2016.

To tackle dog fouling Kingdom Officers are patrolling out of hours in all areas in order to catch the offenders.

Cllr David A Bithell, Lead Member for Environment and Transport said: “Dog foulers should now be very aware that allowing their dog to foul and not picking up after it is something we have a no nonsense, zero approach to.

“Our message is very clear, Don’t be Foul, Pick up the Poo or you will be fined. Dog fouling is an issue residents are continually telling us is a problem and want eliminated.”

Residents concerned about dog fouling in their area are asked to email [email protected] stating the location and time of day, if known, the dog fouling was taking place.
