People visiting the Delaware beaches of Lower Township have been complaining for years about inconsiderate dog owners. Apparently, some people walking their dogs are kicking sand over their dog’s waste, rather than picking it up as required by law. Lower Township Manager Mike Voll issued a press release on Wednesday, stating that the township will adopt a “zero tolerance policy” for people who break the leash law and do not clean up after their pets. Violators will face a summons and $200 fine for each violation. Lower Township does provide doggy bags for dog walkers at many stret ends along the Delaware Bay.
