Thanks to the inconsiderate person/people who on a daily basis allow their dogs to foul the footpaths on our route to school.Every morning is a nightmare trying to avoid the excrement with a 4 year old and a pushchair,sometimes we have to walk in the road as it is unpassable.This route is well known to the local council and several parents campain and religiously plague the council to come and clean it up,which they do but it is soon replaced with more excrement.We have a mile to walk to school and it is pretty much filthy all the way there,but there is a section of footpath before you get to the school gates that is always bad.DD1 has trodden it the excrement already this week and today she came out of school in her plimsolls as the class had been for an educational walk and she had trodden in dog excrement.Her shoes cost us £32 and now after a few weeks we have had to throw them away because the teachers didn't clean it off at the time it has dried on so much you just cant get it off and the shoes reek.Now im not meaning to get at the teachers here as no it is not in their job description to clean dog excrement off their pupils shoes but my dd was in their care when it happened.We cant really afford to buy anymore shoes at the moment and we only spent £30 on trainers for her on sunday and im not sending her in those.
