Dog Fouling - message from local Police.


Recommended Posts

Received this from SNT.


It has been brought to Police attention that there is dog fouling occurring around the Goodrich School area, SE22. Please be advised that it's illegal and dangerous to public's health, especially for young children as it can cause serious illness. It is the dog owner's or the person in charge of the dog(s) responsibility to clean dog waste properly and dispose of it safely. Failure to do so may render you, the dog owner or person in charge of the dog(s), with a penalty notice of fine. For repeat offenders the Council will prosecute and if convicted then you may face a fine of up to ?1,000. REPORT Dog Fouling: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/street-care/dog-fouling. Send the Council any footage of dog fouling - it's evidence. #DulwichHill

but surely it's dangerous to public health everywhere? Young children aren't just found around schools!


Whilst that's true, the Pareto Principle (80:20 Rule) would suggest that concentrating on areas around schools would have a greater impact on children than random sweeps - given any fixed resource. Poo around schools has a much higher chance of impacting children than just randomly in streets away from schools.

Yes, agreed!

I have lived near Goodrich School for over 20 years and dog fouling has been an infuriating and ongoing issue. When my children attended the school, I used to occasionally put up hand written notices to remind dog owners to pick up. Last year I actually provided poo bags on the lamp post outside my house - nobody used them. As I dog owner myself and a resident of Dunstans Rd, very close to the school, I am both perplexed and miffed.


All the dog owners I know in the area always pick up, so I can't imagine who is doing this. I might add that after having often picked up poo outside my house I realise that it is sometimes fox poo - it has a unique smell. However, it's also clear that there are some very thoughtless dog owners out there too.

The old teddy boy who lives on Goodrich Rd has let his incontinent dogs poo over East Dulwich for the last 15 years to my knowledge.


When I have confronted him on a number of occasions he?s told me to


?f-off and die?


Badly brought up, incorrigible miscreant, must be well-known to the police who, quite frankly, have better things to do

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
