Children found smearing excriment on cars
An Onchan Commissioner is reassuring residents the local authority is taking problems with dog fouling seriously – after children were found taking it from bins and smearing it on cars.
The problem was discussed at a recent board meeting, when members decided against providing poop bags on the grounds of cost.
Chris Quirk is a former by-laws officer for Onchan, and says irresponsible dog owners still aren’t cleaning up after their pets.
But he says the issue with children is being addressed:
Manx Care forecasting £8.1m overspend for 2026-27
Tynwald to be asked to approve horse tram tracks funding
Former Manx Airlines boss 'concerned' over potential easyJet takeover
Number of roads to close in preparation for King's visit
