A DOG walker has reacted with “disgust” after picking up over 100 dog poos in one day left by owners on a stretch of the north coast.
Lou Wagstaff, a dog sitter and walker, said she had to use three rolls of poo bags to collect the 114 pieces of excrement that she came across while on a walk between Les Landes and Grosnez over the festive period, including on a section of path she had cleared just an hour earlier.
Ms Wagstaff, who took to social media to share her concerns, is a member of the Wild Poo Project which was set up in June by members of the Jersey Dog Forum Facebook page along with local dog-walking company Spotted Wellies.
Those taking part in the initiative are encouraged to help pick up dog poo to keep the Island’s beauty spots clean. They are asked to take a photo of how much dog waste they collect and post it on The Wild Poo Project Facebook group.
Posting a photo, Ms Wagstaff said she was “disgusted” at the amount of dog mess left by “irresponsible dog walkers”.
“So much for a lovely morning walk,” she added.
