Clean up after your dog - Bag it and Bin it

Almost 100 children each year pick up a serious eye infection from dog mess. Children and adults can also get it on their shoes without realizing it and walk it indoors. Everyone walking a dog must clean up after it. No excuses. Always take a bag with you, close and tie it and dispose of the mess in either the red dog bins or any street litter bin provided by the council. Otherwise you can put it in the bin at home.

Remember in most areas of Stoke-on-Trent it is a criminal offence not to clean up after your dog. If you don't "bag it and bin it" you risk on the spot £50 fines, or up to £1000 if we take you to court.
