: what would you rather pick up: warm or cold??????
: nickerbokker September 20, 2005, 08:00:07 PM
my dogs both took a poo last night in the middle of the night while i was half asleep and didn't ahve bags.....tonig ht, i just walked them and picked up their "fresh" poo as well as the old poo from last night.  while picking up the new poo, i was not bothered....wh en i grabbed the old stuff, i felt my lunch coming up.  so.....which way do you like it LMAO?????

You are too funny. I think the pungent smell of the new stuff is way more nasty than old stuff without a smell anymore. If  I had a choice though I would prefer not to pick up either.  :D

LOL odd question, but I would prefer the older stuff.  For me it has either baked longer or its firmer HAHA so its easier to bag.

Oh god the mental pictures...

I totally agree with you!

Yep!  I'm there.  There are times I read back what I've written AFTER I've posted and just cringe!   I remember someone asking why we don't have spell check on the postings....I'm down with that!!!

And, FDIL, I prefer old and cold as well.  EWWW on warm and fresh!!!

Hmmmm......... ....I prefer the old dried up poos that aren't warm OR cold.  They are room temperature.   :D

I only need to pick up our poo once a week.  So, I leave the really fresh ones, and pick up the dried up ones.  Makes for much easier clean up.

BUT, if I had to pick it up shortly afterwards, I would go for the warm poo.  Cold poo is always a shock to the system.   :o  :o  :o

If you're hungover it doesn't matter!
It's still POO!
I want my dog to be a Toyota Prius.
Feed it when you have to,
Clean up when you got to.
Hopefully not after a weekend of drinking!

Nick you're NUTZ!
But you're right!
I'd rather pick it up when has had a chance to 'jell'
Don't ever pick POO with a hangover, unless you're ready for projectile vomiting!
Is that graphic enough?

My poo picking technique needs much work!! Dog + Kids + backyard all day while I'm at work (I'm the DPP - designated poo picker), so I'll have to say the fresh poo is much easier to scrape from the bottoms of my kids shoes.

LMAO - Ladies, this is what boys are for.  ;)

If I had to pick, I'd have to say the cold poo.

I'm feeling woozy thinking about it...

Warm or cold doesn't matter...solid or soft is the real issue!!

I totally agree with you here Carolyn.  If it's soft and warm it has to bake for awhile before I touch it (unless I'm in the park and have no choice) but I usually wait till the next day or two any way.  It's easier and doesn't s-m-e-a-r on the scoop when it's solid and cooler.

GAWD!  I must have to say I count myself lucky, my babies SH** in the woods.  Our land is surrounded by the lovely wooded areas that nobody frequents. 80 acres and it is ours, so we walk they SH** and I never see it!  In 12 years I have never saw more than a few piles with training pups in the yard.  Hubby did have a swearing fit yesterday as Cali crapped right off the porch.  OUCH he stepped in it!  If we go walking in "town"  I prefer to pick  up "old crap"  the frsh stuff smells SOOOO BAAADDDD! :-\ :o :o :o :o
