Rarelydo I find dog mess in the garden because my dogs are walked regularly. This does put an extra burden on local councils who have to empty the bins but in my experience this is because the dog mess is picked up in supermarket carrier bags which take up a lot of space. In France many places have free dog poo-bag dispensers and much smaller waste bins but in my experience I never saw one full to overflowing. Also this is not such a problem in France because their supermarkets generally do not provide free carrier bags. I have two dogs and a large garden.
