THE POOR old dogs keep getting it in the neck. I know it's no joke to get dog dirt on your shoes etc, that is the owner's fault. I have a dog and also a poop scoop, which I regularly use when we go out, but will someone tell me when will the people who foul pavements by spitting be fined?

I feel utterly sick to the stomach at the number of people clearing their throats in the streets.

Dogs can't help it. Humans can
