A city in Israel, which has been plagued with poopy pavements has started trialling a programme to build a doggy DNA database.
Under the scheme, owners will be encouraged to take their pets to the vet, to get their dog DNA profiled. Owners who regularly use the designated bins to dispose of their dog's droppings will be rewarded with coupons for dog food and toys.
In addition, the poop patrol will take samples of the droppings left on the street. The DNA of the samples will be analysed, and if they are found to match a dog in the database, the owner will be tracked down and fined.

The husband and I are trying to 'do' a book together. I say 'do' rather
than write as I am doing all of the writing - but he's got a really
important role ...
