Mum came over today. She told me a lovely story about the long walk she had had with her dog in the park on Sunday. She is a very responsible dog owner and 'scoops the poop' into one of those peach coloured plastic bags that you see hanging from trees sometimes! The ones people put dirty nappies in and then leave lying around in the woods! You know the ones I mean.Anyway the dog, it transpires, loves water and lay down in the stream. Mum was surprised and amused and walked a very wet dog all the way home.
"I suppose it was better than walking home with poo all down your legs!" She said
I did a double take! Did she mean her or the dog?
"She had a bad tummy in the park the other day!" She explained
(Phew, she meant the dog!)
"You can just imagine how difficult that one was to scoop up off the grass!"
She continued "More of a smear really."
Eeeww, too much information mum!
Us dog-owners are like that. We take poo in our stride. in fact I was talking to a man yesterday who was telling me about his dog's diarrhoea ...
ReplyDeleteThat's why my dogs don't get milk..ewww
ReplyDeleteI've chased rolling dog poo down a frozen hill just to not be that person who leaves the poo in the park.
ReplyDeleteAnd I do love your mum!
Wow. I didn't think you'd go there... but you did!
ReplyDeleteWhat's next? hee hee

Hmmm, I think I'd cover it with grass and consider it fertilizer.
ReplyDeleteAw poor puppy tummy. G-dog has only had that happen once and luckily or unluckily it was in our yard.
ReplyDeleteI do hope there was a doggy bin nearby! x
