I REFER to your article: Bins mean no excuse for dog fouling. I fully agree with Cllr Mrs Carole Swarbrick's comments: "There are some very selfish irresponsible and inconsiderate owners."

Quite a number of these owners obviously use the pathway between Hawthorn Bank and Ambleside Close, Harwood, which is an absolute disgrace due to fouling.

This pathway is used by parents taking their children to school. The winter months are bad enough, but summer also brings the flies which are attracted for obvious reasons in large numbers!

I wonder if these inconsiderate owners will ever change?

I do know that considerate owners use this pathway and in no way are my comments intended for them.
