A pair of Grimsby residents fear the town is literally going to the dogs.
Carlos Smith and Laurie Komar tell the Spec they are sick of all the dog poop in local parks and on trails.
They say the problem has been getting increasingly worse despite their efforts to shame pet owners.
The pair have even left poop bags tied to park fences in the hopes it will encourage canine owners to clean up after their pets.
They are calling on town hall to start enforcing its bylaws.
