DUBLIN CITY COUNCIL has revealed there was a significant rise in complaints relating to dog fouling in public parks and open spaces last year.
Earlier this week, the council launched a campaign to encourage dog owners and dog walkers to act responsibly and to pick up after their dog in response to the problem.
The council has suggested that the Covid-19 lockdown has seen an increase in the number of people walking their dogs, which has led to an increase in dog-related littering.
It’s likely that Dublin isn’t the only place affected. Today we want to know: Have you noticed more dog fouling since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic?
