Those who bring their dogs for a walk along the prom should also be prepared to clean up after their pet takes a poop.
This is the view of Labour councillor Niall McNelis who said dog dirt on the prom is a “major problem”.
“It’s very simple, you bring a plastic bag or paper and clean up using one of the many bins along the prom,” he said. “I am tired of seeing cars pull up, dogs taken off the leash, and walkers with sunglasses on their head ignoring their pet ruining the walk for everyone else.”
He said the Galway City Council is running on “the tightest budget of all time” and “money does not need to be wasted on cleaning up on individuals that could simply do it themselves”.
