Good afternoon. I am now at the end of my tether after my four year old has again walked dog mess into my house. It is not the fact that i have to clean it up, although this is not very pleasant, it is the fact that i also have a one year old who is at the stage of putting everything in his mouth. The neighbour concerned lioves at No. 5 Penyrallt Avenue, Litchard Bridgend. She not only leaves the dog mess on the ground when she walks her dog, but she also allows the dog to roam and do it's business where ever it likes. I have also noticed dog mess in my garden although i cannot say that it is her dog that is responsible. The lady in this address and the worst ofender is an elderly female who owns a black dog. Her neighbour, a gentleman who owns a white and ginger jack russel also allows his dog to roam and carry outs its business. It was quite upsetting to hear the mum and dad of 4 young children living oposite, not to walk in the grass verge due to the excrement. Surely we should be allowed to take our children out without worry that they will get covered in this mess or even worse catch some kind of disease. A good friend of our family has a legal services business. I have considered paying him to carry out surveillance and then take out a private legal case against the two dog owners, with a view to having the costs paid, however, there does not appear to be a provision in the act of law for this to take place. IF THE COUNCIL ENVIROMENTAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT READ THIS, PLEASE TAKE ACTION. THANKS
