Aaralyn Performs Dog Poop (in the studio)

You've seen the band Murp perform their hit song "Dog Poop" on America's Got Talent and in their home, now here's Aaralyn in the studio recording her part.  I love how supportive the parents are to give their kids the freedom to do this.

@Bonartist90's tweet

This is a pretty funny picture of a pineapple in Galway among some dog poop.  @Bonartist90 speculates that someone was playing FruitNinja, a popular iPhone game, in real life.  I don't think dog poop is one of the things in the game.

New Jersey Condo Complex to test Dog DNA

Here's a New Jersey condo complex that is testing DNA to track dog owners who don't clean up after their dogs.  This is the future; clean up after your dog!

Kitty Poops at the Dog Park

This humorous video depicts what would happen if a cat pooped at a dog park where the dogs can speak with accents from various ethnic stereotypes.  The comments on youtube say to share this with dog and cat owners, but I think outdoor cat owners could care less about where their cats poop.  There does seem to be a double standard there, but cats are much less regulated (or controllable).

Here is the info from YouTube:

Jacksonville FL Condo Complex Uses DNA Dog Poop Testing

It seems like this is becoming more and more common, and here's another news story of a condo complex requiring owners to submit DNA samples so turds found on the property can be traced back to their owners.  We saw this in a New Jersey condo complex, at a complex in Virginia, and in Pennsylvania.  I wonder if they require the humans to provide a sample too?

D~Marie's post on Vine

Here's D~Marie's post on Vine, where she determines that her dog was the one who pooped on the floor.  It came with the tweet "#dogs #poop #dogpoo #shame 💩"

Adam Lieblein's post on Vine

Here's a cute vine of a little girl pretending to poop then use the dog bag to clean it up.  It came with the tweet: "Walking the dog can be an adventure. #dog #poop #dogpoop #oops #donttellmom."  I hope mom doesn't visit this page!  Actually, I do, I'm really trying to get people to visit this page and have a laugh and raise public awareness, so tell your friends!

Thanksgiving 2013

This year I have so much to be thankful for, and we should all be thankful for the sacrifice the land is making for us to live comfortably in paper houses with flat screen TVs and the internet.  The idea that we could have domesticated animals in our care and not clean up their waste shows how childish we truly are.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Do the right thing.

Beneful Dream Dog Park 2013 Contest

Here's a video made by Deanna and Day-Z of Orem, UT, for the Beneful Dream Dog Park Contest.  The contest is pretty cool actually, and the winner gets $500K to make their dream dog park in their city.  Go to http://www.beneful.com/Dream-Dog-Park/Finalists-2013/Deanna-and-Day-Z and vote for them.  I'm thinking about next year's contest and maybe putting together an entry… I have a few ideas myself for a dog park.

Here's the written entry that accompanies the video:

One of the best things about living in Utah is the scenery. My dog and I love to go camping and hiking to enjoy that scenery. I would like to build a dog park that keeps the nature/camping atmosphere. A park with lots of trees. Instead of a swimming pool, there could be more of a canal looking spot for dogs to cross with a deeper part they can swim in and maybe a waterfall. A "fire pit" sand box because my pooch likes to dig! Log-shaped dog tunnels for them to climb through. Lantern lights that turn on at night. A big camping tent area for shade. Mountain/rolling hill bridges to cross to practice agility. Picnic benches for owners to relax while their dog plays. A fetch field with match sticks. Big rocks to climb for lookout areas. Maybe small "arches" (our state is famous for them) they can jump through. I just imagine all of the things you think of when you go camping or go to summer camp: flashlights, rocks, tents, sleeping bags, mountains, canoes, fires, trees, cabins, trail marker signs, etc.

Sean Long's post on Vine

Here's a post on Vine from Sean Long and what looks like a chihuahua.  This is a very cute and well done vine, with enough shaming the dog but not too much.  It came with the comment "Gotch ya bitch!! Bella did it again! #funny #dogs #dogpoop #dogproblems #Bella #chiuiahuha."

Angry Landlords Testing Dog Poop DNA

Here's a video from CBS news about landlords testing dog poop for DNA to track down irresponsible owners.  I've heard of this in several communities, and wonder if this'll be the future of scooper law enforcement.


Angry landlords testing dog poop DNA by cbsnews
It would seem that the video cannot be viewed on other websites, but you can follow the link above or watch it on the official site, http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50158683n

The CBS website offers the following commentary:
"Residents at a condo in Virginia are complaining about others not picking up their dog's poop around the building. Signs and security cameras have proven ineffective so the property management is now turning to a company that tests the DNA of the canine droppings to catch the perpetrators. WUSA-TV's Surae Chinn reports."

Poop Patrol

November's Scoop That Poop blog hop is dedicated to the poop patrol, and it immediately made me think of this, one of the first submissions PoDDD ever received.  It's from a friend who has moved away since I dreamt this whole thing up, and this remains one of my favorite images.  It comes from "The Beach" campground in North Conway, New Hampshire.  In my original post I make a joke about the word choice, but its name is "Officer Poop A Trooper" and it's a cute cartoon dog so who cares if it says "da."

Justin Perez' post on Vine

Here's a vine from Justin Perez that came with the comments "When you step in dog poop #lol #funny #dogpoop #comedy #revine."  We're not just going to revine it Justin, we're going to Pictures of Dog Doo-Doo it.  I guess that means I'm going to embed it in a post on here.

Brian Moran's tweet

Twitter continues to be an invaluable resource for us here at PoDDD, and I'm happy to share any tweets like the one below from Brian Moran.  I'm guessing he lives in the UK because of how he spells "recognise," so if you live there keep an eye out for this woman:

30th Annual Lantern Parade in Jamaica Plain

I found this sign while walking home from the 30th annual Lantern Parade in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts.  The parade is cool; some people make their own and some buy a lantern by the boathouse, then walk around the pond.  We purchased a pair of lanterns and walked about 1/8 of the pond before it was getting too late, but on the way home I spotted this sign!
