Most dog owners understand they’re expected to scoop the poop.
But when a puppy does the deed off the path, a great deal of otherwise accountable residents discover themselves questioning… Is it actually much better to select it up in a plastic bag and toss it in the trash? Isn’t dog poop… natural?
Listen to the latest edition of This, That, or The Other Thing: our series about the little choices we make in life to attempt and build a more sustainable world – whether they have any impact and what we can do rather if they don’t.
This time, we’re battling with a significant ick aspect: should I leave my dog’s poop in the woods, or put it in a plastic bag and entomb it permanently in a land fill? And why do otherwise environmentally-minded folks look the other method when it pertains to the effect of our furry good friends?
