LEITRIM COUNTY COUNCIL is planning to bring in DNA testing of dog poo in a bid to help identify owners who fail to pick up their dog’s waste on streets, parks, walking trails and housing estates.
Samples of dog waste in areas with high levels of dog fouling will be taken by the Leitrim animal warden and will then be matched with saliva samples taken from dogs in the same area.
