‘Disgusting’ dog walkers have been told to ‘get a grip’ – after dozens of plastic bags filled with poo were found dumped in a Doncaster park.

The plastic bags full of canine excrement have been found snagged in trees and bushes at Kirk Sandall’s Glass Park in recent days – with the person discovering the littering saying: “Give your head a wobble.”

Sharing photos of the dumped bags on social media, a park spokesman said: “A short walk around the Glass Park today - there is probably more dog poo bags in the trees than there currently is birds.

"If you are the person doing this or you know someone who thinks it’s a good idea, give your head a wobble.

"As well as looking disgusting, putting the wildlife at risk, these dog poo bags can take up to 500 years to decompose - they won’t just disappear if you throw them in a tree!

"Even if you think they are biodegradable, I can assure you none of these are and even if they were, why in a tree?

"Who actually does this?

"I thought dog walkers were on the whole nice people – get a grip, it’s disgusting.”

The angry dog walker blamed the issue on truck drivers peeing into plastic bottles and then throwing them into hedgerows, branding the practice ‘disgusting.’
