To Poop Or Not To Poop

Posted by Seeking Solace |

Now that it is getting cooler, Husband has taken over walking the Boy. The Boy is pretty good on his walks, he wouldn't poop until he was home and in his own yard. Of course, we are good and responsible dog people and carry poop bags, just in case. But, the bags were never necessary.

Until recently.

Seems that the Boy has decided that walks are the best time to poop. Sometimes twice in one walk! Husband just came home with the Boy and we had the following conversation:

Me: How was your walk?

Husband: He pooped again during his walk.

Me: But, he was outside about an hour ago. I thought he pooped then.

Husband: He did. He pooped on his walk because he could!

And people think dogs are dumb!

Pupzilla will almost always poop on a walk--sometimes twice. In fact on hikes she needs to poop at the beginning of the trail. We're not sure if it is to lighten her load or she just gets so excited she can't control herself.

When I was younger I remember my grandmother and father always discussing the dog's poop after a walk. I really couldn't believe two adults could actually make daily conversation about feces, but then I grew up and had a child and a dog.

Husband and I were in a bookstore. I was looking at dog training books and I saw this picture of a dog in full squat, taking a poop. The photo was part of a chapter on housebreaking your dog. I showed Husband the picture, and we could not stop laughing. People in the store thought we were crazy, but dog people totally understood.
