School children in Llandybie have designed their own posters appealing to dog owners to clean up – or pay up!

Designed by pupils Madison Williams and Rhodri Davies, the posters will be put up in the local community to encourage people to put their dog mess in the bin.

The school is working with the council to encourage dog owners to behave more responsibly and pupils were asked to design posters to warn people of the consequences of dog fouling.

Environmental enforcement officers are stepping up patrols in the area and anyone caught failing to clean up after their dog can be fined.
