Picking trash in Karura

Every morning during the holidays we are walking Ziggy in Karura Forest. I'm always surprised to find lots of trash on the ground in this beautiful place. There are signs to not litter everywhere, but people seems to not care about that. I decided to bring a plastic bag to pick up all the trash I saw on my walk. It felt good to do three good things, walk the dog, get some exercise and clean up a bit. Karura is a fantastic place with lots of animals and interesting vegetation and it is really a privilege to have access to it every day and it is pretty controlled when it comes to walking dogs. Some dogs have in the past attacked both other animals and people so no they are very strict. Some dog owners has even been banned. I usually keep Ziggy on a leach, but it would be great if I could have the opportunity to puppy train him a bit, so it would be great if they could lift the ban in a few areas of the forest. In the bigger part there is a part where you're allowed to keep the off leach so we go there in the afternoons. I hope all the dog owners starts controlling their dogs and respect the rules so no one gets hurt and the good dogs can be off leach a little bit more.
