I sit in my property in Calle Salzburg overlooking the plaza with the children’s playing apparatus and areas for ball games and see inconsiderate dog owners allowing their dogs to poo on the stoney areas near by. It is obvious the balls are going to go into those areas and children go to retrieve the balls, treading in the poo. There is a huge expanse of wasteland just 50 metres away, why not take the dogs there ?

They don't take their dogs there because they are disrespectful a***h**es, no other reason. 

Something else they do which is even worse (I hope the person responsible reads this) which is put it in a bag and leave it on the ground, someone did it next to my car, really wish I had caught him/her. Or put it in bags and throw it in a tree. These people are morons because they don't realise that a bag will do more damage to the environment than poop, atleast where I live the poop is eaten by bugs but a bag stays there forever.

Sorry didn't mean for my rant to overshadow your post. Just I work with dogs and always clean up after them

Thanks for your support, I love dogs too, wonderful animals, but I too do not like filthy owners with no respect for others.

Well, here we are, end of June 2022 and still filthy dog owners allowing their dogs to poo near the children’s playing apparatus and ball area. Still too lazy to clean up, still too lazy to use nearby wasteland and still too stupid to realise dog poo contains harmful bacteria that causes serious health problems. The balls are kicked and land anywhere in the plaza, even the stoney areas. Morons !!! You will from the map, 50 metres from the children’s play park is a huge area of waste land, ideal to let the dogs crap all day long.

Just took a walk yesterday along a small ravine, a distance of around 1.1km. The most of the journey is on a very narrow  track. From the one end to the other I counted 49 pieces of dog shit on the path, and probably just as many at the side. Absolutely disgusted.

So many thick people who do not realise dog crap can cause blindness apart from the fact it is just plain disgusting.

I would sit there with a big camera in my hand and when someone walks close with their dog stand up to let them know you are watching 👀 

I bet they will clean up ......

Back again end of October 2022 and still the disgusting dog owners actually encouraging their dogs to crap in the plaza near to the children’s play apparatus. Even though within 50 metres there is rough ground away from the plaza. I read in the newspaper of crackdown on Costa Brava with heavy fines, not before time and hopefully keep it up. This filthy habit is done openly and daily, councils & police do nothing about it. Bearing in mind dog faeces contains parasites that cause blindness.
