Dog walkers are requested to clean up after their dogs, but instead of depositing the package in a bin or taking it home, the latest trend seems to be ‘fling it in a tree’. Our group walk leader has christened them ‘doggy doo wessel cups’. (Wessel cups, a Yorkshireism for Christmas tree decorations).
