Dog Walkers Without Soapy Water Will Be Fined

Dog walkers in Benalmadena must now carry a bottle of soapy water, of face fines.  The council has introduced a new policy, requiring all dog walkers to carry soapy water to clean up after their pets.  The Mayor Victor Navas says “We live in a city with lots of sunny days. Urine dries quickly on public highways if it is not diluted, causing bad odours”. 

To launch the campaign, the Mayor has been handing out clear bottles to dog walkers in Benalmadena, saying “We all have to be responsible and respectful when living together.”
