Note to self, get in touch with HBC and demand that as a council tax ower, I too should be allowed the irritation of hearing strange and unexplained noises within the area, they would make a change from the wierd bullshine Mags, (term of endearment), floods accyweb with.

I wonder, if dog owners have to pick up their crap, can she not be made to pick up the trail of it she leaves all over AccyWeb?

Do you see them around now? Do you see adverts on the beeb claiming they can even detect tellys in flats?

No, you don't and the reason for that is because it is illegal to use such false claims.
The same goes for the council, if they have claimed they have these over-priced articles with the intention of using them, then they had better have them & use them, or else what they claim is false and illegal.
I stand corrected Less luv.

Re: Going far too far!

Just read the article again. What is that moronic dog warden yakking about? Blindness caused by piles of dog poo If the sight of Hyndburn residents is a concern, then surely the next move will be to ban games like conkers ... oops, I get the feeling someone is going to tell me that this has already been done The article gets funnier with every read. And these clowns take themselves soooo seriously.

There are about 10 cases of Toxocaraisis in the whole of the UK every year. So if all dog poo is picked up immediatly that will stop the 1 case every 100 years(proportionately) which might occur in HBC.Right?

Wrong! Once the poo is on the grass the parasites and their eggs are left there even when the poo is removed.Another ill thought out emotional argument.
Dog poo is a disgusting problem but HBCs reaction to it is also disgusting. Also if he's on night shift(double time?) who is looking out for the many more daytime poo droppers?

By the way, even if it's a good camera surely it can't take pictures in the dark?

i wonder how many of those cases are caused by cats.All im saying is i often see dog owners pick up their dogs poop but i have NEVER seen a cat owner follow their cat outside and clean up after it

Good point! The parasites live in round worms and both cats and dogs have them.
Only answer for HBC-totally ban all cats and dogs!

Of course, one could always slip on the doggie poo and damage one's eye on a sharp stone.

Don't give them any more crazy ideas ... or as soon as they come up with an expensive and unworkable scheme, they will implement it. Am I right in assuming that dog poop on the sidewalks is the most pressing problem facing Hyndburn after what is going on in Kashmir?

Re: Going far too far!

Yeah, spot on there, Eric, luv. The streets are ankle deep in the stuff. We've all got worms and Toxocariasis is endemic. The smell on a summers day... well, you can imagine. Apart from that the old place is just fine, luv.

There's more chance of doing that, Eric. Toxocariasis is readily diagnosable, easy to treat and almost never gets to develop far enough to cause blindness(NHS website).

Some people believe dogs to be unclean, even if they never pooped.

More info to counter HBC's hysterical overreaction.

Sadly, most people’s knowledge of the rare Toxocara canis infection is limited to hearsay and hysterical media reports. However the facts are:

  • As the eggs of the Toxocara worm take over two weeks to hatch and become active, there are no health risks to you from immediately clearing up after your dog.
  • In tests, only five per cent of pet dogs were found to expel Toxocara worm eggs.
  • Of this five per cent, the majority were pups between two weeks and six months of age or pregnant bitches.
  • Foxes and cats also act as hosts to the Toxocara worm.
  • The incidence of all Toxocara-induced diseases in the UK is only two cases per million of the population. However, this still means that about 40 people are needlessly ill each year.
  • The eggs of the Toxocara worm, if deposited in soil, can lie dormant for up to three years, if the conditions are right. They are highly resilient to temperature changes and chemical disinfectants have little effect on them.
