Boxford has a dog-waste issue on our trails.

People are NOT removing their dog poop…

We have posted friendly signs to remind people to remove their pet’s poop, so — please —respect your fellow walkers and the town’s well water. We do not need more E coli in our waterways — and no one wants poo on their shoe or in their cars.
