CREDITON Town Council says that it has unfortunately been receiving high levels of complaints regarding increased dog fouling around the town.

In a statement the council said: “Following the visit from the Britain in Bloom judges in the summer the lack of litter, graffiti and dog foul was positively commented on and we want to maintain this standard.

“Please remember that litter bins are now marked as dual-use, for both litter and dog foul.

“Any bin will do, so please do your bit to help us Keep Crediton Clean.

“You can also report a dog fouling incident to Mid Devon District Council by visiting: www.middevon.gov.uk/residents/dogs/dog-fouling .”
