Scooping the poop is an easy thing to do and it might keep another animal from getting super sick.....just takes a second to scoop!ReplyDelete
Sammy and his Mom
we are proud that not only do we pick up OUR poop, we pick up everyone else's too!ReplyDelete
If people can't be bothered to clean up after there dogs they shouldn't own them.ReplyDelete
I'm guilty of using that 'fertilizer' rationale back in the day before I learned better. Let's get the word out to folks who are still buying it!ReplyDelete

Thanks for talking about this important topic. We have a poop-guy in my village, but it would be better to clean up behind the dog. dog poop can be dangerous for peeps and pets. It's just an easy stroke of work to remove the mines, so we should do it.ReplyDelete
I think y'all are on to something impawtant, and polite too!ReplyDelete
Great post, Miss Ann! Let's hope we make a difference and get more people to #ScoopThaPoop!!!ReplyDelete
*high paw*

I'm proud to say Titan will only poop in his yard and yes, I do scoop it up! ;)ReplyDelete
Yay for scooping poop! Good to spread the word.ReplyDelete
I'll do what ever you say Shiner! Love DollyReplyDelete
We want a clean hood so scoop the poop is fine with us so I always take the bag lady with me, Have a marvelllous Monday.ReplyDelete
Best wishes Molly
Flush poop down the grass... IF ONLY! :) I know that some people use the flushable poop bags and actually bring the poo into the house to flush it. Eh, I don't think I want to carry dog poo through the house, even if it is in a bag. But I did just hear about something where you can flush the poop without bringing it into the house to flush down the toilet. It goes your sewer line or septic tank, via a connector of sorts. It's called the umm... hang on... ah, the Doggie Doo Drain. (I don't know if I would use this product or not, but at least it's another option of disposal to encourage people to dispose of it instead of leaving it lying around.)ReplyDelete
Cute pic of Shiner encouraging everyone to be a Scooper Hero!
I scoop! That fertilizer myth seems to be a common misconception. I hope more humans learn the truth soon, and scoop the poop!ReplyDelete
It's better to be a Scooper Hero than a litter-bug. Woof to you Shiner n mom. Lots of Golden Thanks for being one of the blog co-host and helping us SPREAD #ScoopThatPoop. Lots of Golden Woofs, SugarReplyDelete
Great job spreading the word today Shiner & Ann...My wish is that as we repeat and share the message every month we'll reach those who need it and start to make a differenceReplyDelete
Great campaign! Like Jackie I clean up the poop when taking Sookie for walks but don't always clean it up in my yard. I will try a lot harder to do it now!ReplyDelete
Too bad I can't send this post to every dog owner in our complex. They just let there dogs poop everywhere including in the garage. Then others blame the feral colony for pooping. That's not fair. Humans are just plain lazy.ReplyDelete
it's great that Dogster has joined forces with the campaign :)ReplyDelete
Actually my dog does have his own dog toilet that flushes right to the sewer and he uses when he wants. He doesn't poop anywhere else just like us humans :). Dog poop problem solved! You can see it in action at www.dogtoilet.info. Don't know if I'm breaking the rules here but couldn't resist... My apologies if I am...ReplyDeleteReplies
That's awesome Simon! I have heard of similar systems being used in dog kennels. We did used to pick up most of the dog poop when a dog went in a kennel, but then there were still small bits on the ground we'd have to wash away down the drain.Delete
Great information :)ReplyDelete
But....i always wonder, where do you thrown the poop after you scoop it?
if only all dog owners followed this,xx RachelReplyDelete
Thanks Ann! Great to call it out like it is - trash. Great post!ReplyDelete
Thanks so much for hosting the hop. The message is a good reminder to all.ReplyDelete
Well said. It's easy picking up after me - I'm tiny and so my poops are in proportion! Hehe. But even when with my friends who are big dogs - we super pick up. Mine and others. Some humans don't deserve their poochie pals.ReplyDelete

Obama Is Already Binge-Watching the New Season of Game of Thrones
While the rest of us struggle with expensive cable packages or try to bum HBO GO passwords, the president has already taken delivery of screeners for season 4 of Game of Thrones. Commoners won't get the first episode until April 6.
"One perk of being the most powerful man in the world: yes, you get to see episodes early," showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss told Vanity Fair.
Game of Thrones has been a favorite in House Obama for some time. At a state dinner last month, the president asked HBO CEO Richard Plepler for advance episodes of Game and True Detective, the New York Times reported.
We know he got one of the two shows, but nobody has confirmed whether Obama withheld the identity of the Yellow King from the American public. Scandal!

Stand-up Comedian
Standup comedian David Dean is our favorite mid-west funny man! His comedy is fast-paced, funny, relevant, and safe for the whole family. When he's not doing comedy he's passionate about overseas missions.
Travels From:
Fort Wayne, IN
Booking Fee:
Call 866-400-2036 for a quote
God has blessed David Dean with the gift of making people laugh on a full-time basis for over 25 years. Comedy that is family-friendly, fast paced, and most importantly: clean. Not corny, but clean.
David says, "There is nothing that thrills my heart more than looking out into an audience and seeing families; dads, sons, moms, daughters, hunched over laughing."
David honed his talent in the late 80's at the famous Second City School of Improvisational Comedy in Chicago. It was there where he learned to think quick on his feet and respond to – and with – the audience. Slowly, God began opening doors throughout the Chicagoland area for David to come and share his humor at faith based events. Hosts not only wanted the laughter, they wanted David to talk about his walk with Christ. That chapter in his life taught him that comedy is simply a platform for talking about Jesus.
David rarely shies away from any type of setting: Family comedy nights, Men's Events, Women's gatherings, Youth conferences/retreats, weekend services, and even banquets and fundraisers.
But David is more than comedy. Over the past 10 years, David has hosted week-long mission trips 4-5 times a year to the Dominican Republic. He and Craig Gross, the founder of XXXchurch.com and a long-time friend, co-wrote a book designed for partents titled, Touchy Subjects.
David and Betsy, his wife of over 25 years, live in Huntington, Indiana and have two adult children, Hannah and Alex.
