Oh this is a good one! Funny thing, I was just thinking that i have never done this .. picked up doggie doodoo.. except maybe waiting a few days if it is on our lawn and kicking it under a rose bush. we have lots, with 4 dogs.. good healthy roses bushes too. But I was wondering how people can get used to this . I mean picking up warm, soft **** with a plastic bag... and then having to carry it around for a while.. what kind of enjoyable walk is that? where do people put it... in there pocket.. or do they swing it as the stride along. it grosses me out. once in a while I contemplate if i could ever live in a city and immediately think of this... I am not a spleeny person either, believe me, but that is going too far for me. I may be a country dweller for ever. I wouldn't even have a cat litter box in my house.
Haha! You bring up a lot of interesting questions about being a city-dwelling dog owner. But in most cities, there are garbage receptacles placed at fairly frequent intervals along the streets, so the bags of doo-doo can be deposited there. Otherwise...hmmmm...what do they do with those bags of fresh hot s--t?! City folk also like to take their dogs to parks where there are often plastic bag dispensers and garbage bins for caca collection. But, yah...picking it up, even with a plastic bag--YUK!!! I can just barely manage dealing with a cat litter box...but would prefer not to. I wonder if we should invent some sort of cool caca carrying container for city people's pet poo? They would have to be disposable and bio-degradable because one wouldn't want to have to bring it home and wash it out for reuse.
oh the dilemma! confession: i've walked our dogs at night so if there was a a doo-doo there would be no to-do from the neighbors... covert poops i guess you could say. really love this maxim- beautifully done as usual!
Who knew Doggie Pooh would be such a controversial subject!!! I'm not a dog owner :) I love the humor in your painting! And I love your characters in your paintings too!
Ha ha.... woof... Have a nice Sunday

ReplyDeleteHaha! "Covert poops"! That's great. Stealth bombers!
DeleteTo pick up or not to pick up . . decision by process of elimination.
ReplyDeleteYou make a good point: I definitely cannot poo-poo your comment.

ReplyDeleteMuch as the subject matter of this maxim, my characters come through me.
DeleteGlad you like the output.
:-D
it might be a question of karma... if you leave it, you might step right into some pooh soon;)
ReplyDeleteAh yes, what goes around comes around, sometimes in the form of poo.
Deletea reason to have cats
ReplyDeleteAgreed. One of many!
DeleteGood thing Arnie has on those heavy boots. Never know when you're gonna put your foot in it!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Good one! I'll have to tuck that away for future use as a maxim.
Delete:-D
Love it! Love the humour and energy of your work.
