Dog poop is great fertilizer!! :)) (Love your pics, gorush!!)

Yes traffic is loud. What are the freeways made out of where you live?

We are dog sitting our son’s 170 lb. English Mastiff while he is on vacation. I know all about HUGE piles. We had to drag out the snow shovel from the shed to handle Truman’s massive mountains of recycled Iam’s.

I agree with you. Car exhaust is more offensive.

asphalt.

it’s quieter.

Smells like cow sh*t where I live - and I like it.

I understand about mountains of Mastiff poop. Our next door neighbors have 2 of the monstrous animals. Sweet dogs but intimidating. Their fire alarm went off the other day when they were at work so I ran over with the key in case the firemen needed to go in. The dogs were inside looking out at the firemen, one of the firemen about 6'5” 300lbs, looked at the dogs and asked me if I would go in first. I am a 71 year old woman 5'2” so I just looked at him and mouthed the word ‘pussy’. It was a pretty funny moment.

We have asphalt roads too, in places.

Think of what horses produced in cities a hundred years ago.

The air in this city is quite fetching.

Oh no! Dog poop causes global warming

Sic the Feds on Fido. Alert Algore that a new Crap, Scoop and Trade Program is needed.

Sticks in your mouth.

Where’s Bo? Has anybody seen Bo lately?

CU Boulder, I think they mistook their own odor for dog feces

Your Corgis and your gardens are gorgeous.

They are trying to come up with an excuse to get rid our our animals, and they’ll have a hell of a fight when they get to me.

First it was cigarettes...

Now it's second-hand dog poop.

If it isn't one thing, it's another.

No wonder the SPCA/HSUS wants all those dogs 'sterilized'...

[Steve Van Doorn]

That is an easy one.
It will be the dry poop that moves into the air not moist stuff. Which means regular clean up and that could be in-forced different means. One would be air samples near homes.

[meatloaf]

That was absolutely priceless!
