Dog owner fined over £750 after allowing pet to poo in his own garden

A man has been fined for allowing his dog to poo in his own garden. The owner, who has not been named, has been hit with a fine of more than £750 for the faeces littered across his garden.

Neighbours complained about the smell of the dog waste, but the owner ignored four notices to clean up the mess before being taken to court. The owner was first served with a Community Protection Warning last October, reports Wales Online.

A deadline of a week was given to clean up the dog dirt but no action was taken by the resident. Council officials stepped in and inspected the property.
