SIR – Thank you for publishing the article recently highlighting the issue of dog fouling, which has provoked strong reactions, and a healthy debate.

You will recall my letter in January calling for fellow dog owners to be more responsible. This was followed up with a publicity and poster campaign in Baildon by several organisations. However, despite the efforts from campaigners on all political sides, very little has changed.

Isn’t it time for the Council to get tougher on this issue, and take real action to enforce the law?
