I, too, think I’m far too concerned with what people think. And, for the record, I do think your poop-carrying-snowball was a fantastic idea. In theory. Sometimes those theories don’t hold water (or in this case, poop) in the real world. But good on you for trying! 🙂

I love this story. 🙂 Made me LOL, no kidding.

I had two shirts on once…a tank top and another shirt over that. It was in a busy, judgy neighborhood when one of my dogs decided to deposit last night’s meal on someone’s yard. If there were a record playing, it would have skipped. So, I dutifully picked up the poo by removing my outer shirt and packaging it nicely within. As I was walking away, one of the neighbors was outside cleaning their yard. He said to me “That’s the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen anyone do!” LMAO! And here I was trying to be the anti-disgusting by carrying away my dog’s doo doo in my old shirt. Ohhhhh well….

Well, we don’t have snow. But so far I’ve never been caught without a bag when anyone has been watching and I’m not living in hope either!

Great post:)

I so relate! Why is it that whenever I forget a bag, the dogs have to poop and when I bring 3 bags, none of them poop? Or, they have VERY soft poop and picking it up makes more of a mess than leaving it there. Of course, we only leave it in overgrown fields of weeds…the very places the dogs would never poop in! OMG! Can’t wait to meet you at BlogPaws!

So what makes you think it’s okay to play with the brown snowballs?

I will never, ever eat another Tootsie Pop.

P.S. This was flipping hilarious.

It would have made for an even better punch line, though. . .

Thank you. My next task is to get dog owners everywhere to appreciate my deep practical insight.

Notwithstanding the wisdom of your suggestion, my record to date suggests that this will be a very steep hill to climb.

I can thing of better reasons for that wish. . . like the enjoyment of removing twelve inches of heavy, moisture-laden snowfall from your sidewalks with a shovel two or three times a year.

I feel your pain. I have found that the one-bag double-sequential poop pickup maneuver is way beyond the gymnastic skill level of a guy who can’t make a decent snowball out of ice and crap.

Luckily, since I live in the land of rain, I just steal the closest newspaper bag . . is that wrong? I couldn’t have walked away either 🙂 Well, at least you tried, right?

I’m just glad you didn’t fall IN the snowball/poop!!
