It marks one of several times Doncaster Council posts have gone viral online, with three posts on the @DoncasterCouncil TikTok page garnering over 300,000 views each.

The council recently renewed its Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) against dog fouling, meaning that requirements to clean up dog litter are now enforcible by authorities.
