Picking up #litter on a #dog walk is a simple idea but so effective where lots of us do it as fewer folk drop litter when areas are clean.
It’s also fab for #mentalhealth doing something that has an immediate visible impact.
If we REALLY love animals it’s not a big ask is it?

It is amazing how much litter you can fit in a poo bag to drop in the next bin on your dog walk.🙂

I'd encourage all my fellow dog walkers to follow this advice. I often carry a plastic bag to collect rubbish I find on walks with Molly, but even one or two bits picked up and popped into a bin makes a difference.
What difference can you make today? It only takes a minute to protect animals & the #environment. A couple of pieces of #litter on every walk.
