PICK UP AFTER YOUR DOG
Please ensure that you clean up after your dogs while out walking. We are fortunate to have beautiful places for walks and it is vital that we keep these clean for all to enjoy.
Toxocariasis is an infection caused by roundworm parasites. It is spread from animals to humans via infected faeces. Dog faeces contain bacteria and worms, which can be particularly harmful to young children. It is picked up on the wheels of bikes and buggies and is brought into homes across the country. It is also a particular problem for wheelchair users.
Please be responsible and clean up after your dog and not to forget there is a €150 fine!
