Dog fouling in the Welshpool area is on the increase again and residents are being urged to ‘shop a plop’ if they spot a dog owner breaking the law.
 
A special hot line and email address has been set up by Powys County Council allowing residents to report irresponsible dog owners.

 
The council says it can then respond to complaints by investigating and if necessary taking enforcement action against the dog owner.

Cllr Geraint Hopkins, the council's Cabinet Member for Environment and Regulation, said: “By asking residents to report any dog fouling related problems, they can help us tackle this issue in their community.”

To report a dog fouling incident email tls.helpdesk@powys.gov.uk or call 0845 602 7035 or 01597 827465.
