Maybe another silly question fro me!

Being a responsible dog owner bringing pooch to Crete, I suddenly thought I have never seen any dog waste bins such as in the UK. What do you other dog owners do with the poop bags?

Regards

Ha Ha Ha.

I have NEVER seen a dog waste bin; maybe they lurk in Heraklion but not convinced.

You hardly ever see locals walking their dogs; they are usually tied up and do their poos in a circle dictated by the length of their rope.

Small lapdog breeds are becoming popular 'the more you pay the better it must be' seems to be the rule. But I never see these dogs on the ground.

When I walk our dogs in the olive groves I take a carrier bag; if its done on the road I will pick it up and bin it; if its done out in the wilds I leave it.

They do sell pooper scoopers and bags; my local petshop guy says he had never ever sold one!

Thanks for that, I thought it may be the case, but I didn't want to fall FOUL (excuse pun, irresistable) of local custom! Grin
