As the local councillor, I was recently contacted by a dog owner keen to do the right thing. After this I arranged for a dog waste bin to be place in Littleworth Lane, Whitley.
Walking my own dog today I was disgusted to see that yards from the dog waste bin was dog mess.
To those of you that walk your dogs on the land around Shaw and Whitley, please take note: you have been welcomed onto the land of our local farmers. The very least you can do is clean up after your dog.
Councillor Terry Chiver, Independent Melksham Without North, Eden Grove, Whitley, Melksham.
