In Kildare, locals have been calling for more signs and bins.
Dog fouling fines have remained minimal across the county, with just four issued last year.
Locals have been taking to social media to vent their frustration over dog poo bags being dumped on the ground, with calls for more signs, bins and more responsibility from pet owners.
In the capital, park entrances and playgrounds have been pinpointed as hotspots for a parasite related to dog poo.
9 of the 12 parks tested by Trinity College zoologists found roundworm eggs, that in some cases can cause breathing difficulties and even blindness.
Children are most at risk of infection while the main source of the eggs was dog poo.
While most people don't become ill after coming into contact with the parasite, the worms can spread to parts of the body where they can cause breathing difficulties and even blindness.
