I APPRECIATE the opinions of dog-owners who write to Mailbox complaining about unsightly general litter being left on beaches and parks etc, but there is a big difference between the unpleasant health issues involving dog mess and general litter.
My wife and I go for an evening walk through Upton Village and now we have to use the road because of the dog-fouling on the paths.
This is not general litter. It's stuff we don't want on our shoes or bring into our house.
Derek Wright, Upton Village.
