This is an appeal to all residents of Aycliffe Village to be vigilant and report anybody not picking up after their dog. Unfortunately the presence of dog dirt has become an apparent issue, particularly in the Durham Road area of the village, which is also the main route to school.
Leaving dog dirt for other people, especially children, to witness and step in, is not only disgusting, unhygienic, unsightly and illegal, it’s downright inconsiderate.
If you are the culprit, please show some consideration to your family, friends and fellow residents. This behaviour is totally unacceptable and disrespectful. This is a lovely village, let’s keep it that way.
