It’s one thing to not clean up after your dog on the pavement or in a field, but it’s quite another in the fenced in area of the children’s playground and is absolutely unacceptable!!!!!

If the person or people taking the free dog-poo bags from the play area dispenser by the handful weren’t so inconsiderate, the mess could have been dealt with immediately.
