    Every other day in the winter, 'cause frozen poopsicles are easier to snatch up. Come to think of it, every other day in summer too 'cause if it's hot..does the word "baked" sound too yukky..is easier too. If it's going to rain or snow, immediately if I catch it in time. Logan usually does her #2 at night. I guess there is something about having 1 pup.

    I have to admit that I'm behind schedule on the poop scoop'n . I try to get to it at least once a week, but every now and then that slips to once every other week. I can't complain about winter weather here, but at least there's a big yard and side yard so it doesn't ever become too big of an issue,but it needs to be done more often.

    I'm bad at picking up poop.

    In the summer I do it once a week (before I cut the grass) but once the grass doesn't get cut anymore... I'm lucky to get out there once a month!
    Comes Spring time, I'm out there for 2 or 3 days picking up poop!

    Is my dog the only one who poops inside on a wee-wee pad? We have a wee-wee pad set up in the laundry room and when she wants to go she waits by the door. I clean it up right after she goes, because if I leave it there I get yelled at so I just flush it.

    Depends on the weather.. In these colder months.. usually once a week, except I try to get it all before it snows... So they dont step in it because its covered by inches of white and then bring it inside.. Eli is one clumsy dog.. In the summer, definitely every other day or so. It starts to stink............. "baked" sounds about right!!

    We live in a townhouse/patio home/condo( )/villa/whatever so the backyard is a concrete slab and river rocks.. so it has no where to go.. So we must scoop.. and for our neighbors' sake. And in the summer we have to clean the concrete with a big broom and SimpleGreen because MissPriss refuses to do her business on the rocks.. So 'PeeStainedConcrete' gets smelly in 90F+ with 100% humidity.. Shoot.

    I'd love a grass backyard.. At my mom's house, we never scooped. Half an acre of grass and 4.5 acres of woods, so RB Pepper could poop wherever she pleased. It was NICE!

    Not often enough.

    During the summer I did pretty good, at least once a week, whenever I had to mow the lawn. During the winter however... Lets just say the snow is mostly melted now and our yard isn't pretty. They tend to poop in just certain ares so I generally can walk around the yard in the poop-free zones. It will be nice when the cold weather stops so I can get back into a regular poop-scooping schedule.

    we will have to pay a person to come clean up our pups poops ... he gives us a 2 dog discount .. what with us in school for the next 10 months and working part time, the guy comes 1 time a week and cleans it all up..

    HOWEVER, before that we were doing it 2 to 3 times per day... now that we have our hands full it is really nice to have to just pay someone to do it. then, once we graduate from college and the twins have settled in, we will go back to doing it our selves... is that BAD??? ...

    I dont. My puppy uses a puppy pad. I keep 3-4 out always, and I change them 1-2 times daily, when they need to be changed!


    Thank you so much Michelle!

    Please be responsible, spay and neuter your pets!


    I've been BOO'd!!! Thanks Lori!
