Undercover enforcement officers will be out around the north-east of the city in coming days, ready to target dog owners who fail to pick up after their furry friends.
Glasgow City Council launched the 'Week of Action' programme earlier this year to tackle filthy streets, litter, flytipping, overgrown weeds and graffiti.
Several areas including Govanhill, Craigend and Anderston have already had a week-long cleaning blitz and Cranhill in the north-east of the city is the next target.

Council workers will also be out in force clearing weeds, cutting shrubbery, sweeping streets, repairing streetlights, refreshing road markings, tackling fly-tipping and removing graffiti from Monday.
Specific streets in Cranhill are being targeted, but undercover enforcement officers could be anywhere in the area.
Local residents are being asked to join a litter-pick led by Cranhill Development Trust and the council's Clean Glasgow team on December 1, starting in Bellrock Street.
Fiona Duncan, a community development worker at the trust, said: "Dog fouling is definitely a problem in the area, especially in the community garden and around the playpark.
"It's horrible for families and volunteers working in the garden who stand in dog poo - so it's good that action's being taken.
"I'm also looking forward to good community participation on the litter pick to help keep Cranhill clean."
Offenders on community payback will join the Cranhill clean-up and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service will offer fire safety advice to residents.
Ruairi Kelly, Glasgow City Council's convenor for neighbourhood services and assets, said: "The council has had really positive feedback from communities already visited by the Weeks of Action programme and Cranhill is the next area to benefit.
"This new strategy, in addition to routine council maintenance and the partnership approach, is making a real difference in neighbourhoods.
"Cranhill will be a hive of activity with work taking place to tackle environmental issues like dog fouling, which we receive lots of complaints about."
