On a recent visit to Rochefort, I was pleased to see a dog fouling station sited on a green area on the outskirts of the town.
It is the first one I have seen in France. They are a great idea and every town should have one, especially as I would like another dog in the future - that's if I can convince Elizabeth it won't eat her!
So well done Rochefort and my your town stay free of dog poo...
Whilst I was researching the availability of such facilities in England and came across this fact about UK dogs... "Estimates put the UK dog population between 6.5 and 7.4 million, producing 1,000 tonnes of excrement per day." However you look at it, that's an awful lot of dog poo!!!
I have noticed some facilities in my past work travels around the UK but they appear to be thin on the ground - unless, of course, you know otherwise...
Here are a couple of links if you would like to know a bit more...
