A new scheme that hopes to tackle a nationwide dog poo problem is now coming to the Wirral.
A project led by Wirral Council, in partnership with Dogs Trust and Keep Britain Tidy, will introduce five new dog walking trails to the borough in an attempt to reduce mess left by dog fouling. The trails will be of varying length and will feature obvious signage to encourage the proper disposal of dog mess.
The project has previously been successful in other areas of the country and when it was run in both 2017 and 2018 the areas saw a 40% reduction in the amount of dog poo left along the walks.
