Dog Walkers

This is just a quick gripe of mine, it relates to the supposedly responsible dog owners who pick up their dogs faeces and put them in a bag then you would think they'd put them in a bin but no instead they wait until no ones looking and throw them into the hedge, I must point out at this point i'm not referring to the vast majority of dog owners who are very responsible I only refer to the small minority of irresponsible dog owners.

I really can't see the point of going to the trouble of putting your dog's faeces in a bag only to throw it into a hedge where the bag as well as the faeces becomes a problem, if the correct bags are used they're meant to be biodegradable but apparently they just breakdown into smaller pieces which get taken up by smaller animals and invertebrates which is a huge issue as  they are the foundations of the food chain...rant over:-)
