Young boy in wheelchair asks dog owners for 'favour' after wheels covered in poo on way to school

A young wheelchair user has appealed to dog owners to pick up their pet’s poo after his wheels were destroyed with excrement on his way to school

Cian Griffin, 11, from Ratoath, Co. Meath said he was ‘very sad’ when he got poo on his wheels, meaning his mother Niamh had to wheel him the rest of the way to St Paul’s School to ensure his hands were kept clean.

The child posted a video online which has been shared hundreds of times since it was posted on Monday night and Niamh has even received messages of support from as far away as New Zealand.
