Dog dirt afternoons

Sir, – Kevin Courtney’s impassioned rant about what he quaintly refers to as “dog poo” (Summer Living, July 19th) is perfectly understandable – dog mess is nasty, smelly and a nuisance.

In my daily experience of Killiney Hill and Killiney beach, I’d say 95 per cent of dog walkers clean up after their pooches perform.

If Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council wants to improve these figures, it should place more bins along Killiney beach – especially going towards Shankill. – Yours, etc,
