Dog walkers leaving poo everywhere

Reported via mobile in the Request for Advice or Information category anonymously at 10:32, Wednesday 15 July 2026

Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 974684.

Recently due to dunnottar woods needing payment to park dog walkers having been coming up to toucks woods and parking where ever they can which is dangerous and leaving poo everywhere which is a health hazard and just disgusting and unfair to the residents of rickarton and the farmer who have been keeping the track clean for years , there has also been a spike in rubbish since they came up here , they bring lots of dogs who I suspect they cannot control that number
