I AM writing in response to the letter from Lyn Glass about dog fouling (Think Of Mess, News Shopper, May 18).

I think Lyn has misinterpreted her letter from the council. I cannot believe the council would encourage dog fouling but is simply recognising many dog owners do not pick up after their dogs.

I was especially concerned about her comment "maybe we should all let our dogs contribute to the country feel of the park".

The last thing I want to see is dog foul everywhere, just because one resident is inciting others to commit a criminal offence.
