Welcome to this edition of Follow-up Friday, the blog hop that let’s you wrap up your week and leads you right into the weekend.
My co-hostess this week lives in the south, but is originally from up north, she’s got that no-nonsense attitude mixed in with her southern charm. She is fur mom to Shadow, Callie and Ducky, please make sure you pop over and say hello to Sue from The Golden Life. Many thanks to Sue for co-hosting this week!
I don’t typically follow-up on Follow-up Friday comments, but this one by Dawn really needed a response, “my dog Cassie from my childhood would always walk when she pooped or peed.”
Delilah does the same thing. We call her “Delilah shit walker.”
You Make Me Laugh
Most of you said your dogs either do the same thing as Sampson, or they hide the toy. It’s funny isn’t it, that they’ve learned to communicate so well. 😀
What’s the Stink About?
Yeah, I think we all agreed that leaving your dog’s business (or in some people’s case, their own brains) right next to the poop station is the epitome of laziness.
I did speak at length with the town Parks and Recreation department manager and I outright told him, the best prevention would be two feet in the park observing who is doing (or not doing) what. I also suggested poop stations and trash cans scattered throughout the park, but so far nothing has happened.
Some day I will go up there without the dogs and bring my pail and scooper, I won’t mind picking up after someone else’s dog in that manner.
Pumpkin Patties
Gizmo said, “These do sound good enough to share and they look just like peanut butter cookies…hmm, maybe add a touch of peanut butter too?”
That’s where I got the idea for pressing them with a fork Gizmo! I can’t eat peanuts myself, but I bet some almond, cashew or sunbutter would work just as well. Actually I’m planning on making an icing for them this weekend and see how that tastes.
Tenacious Little Terrier said, “They look good. Perfect for fall. I’m tempted to make some and leave them out so the BF will eat them unaware.”
Oh that made me LOL. You should record it too.
Jodi, Kolchak and Felix said, “Those look amaaaaaazing! Did you know you can get cookie scoops (kind of like mini ice cream scoops ) to get uniform balls? Then you just have to roll them around a bit to warm ‘em up & shape them and voila! You’ve rolled Mrs. Taleteller’s mind right into the gutter (but your cookies will look good too.)”
Shit, I have one of those little scoops too! It’s been so long since I’ve been baking I’ve forgotten all the tricks to the trade.
BTW, I like putting Mrs. Taleteller’s mind in the gutter, I’m thinking of asking her to share a room with me Vegas. 😉 I think we could get into some sirius trouble.
It’s a Doggone Shame
Jen said, “I’m not sure if I could tie the poop to my loops, something about hot shit hitting my thigh would drive me crazy!”
Yeah, really I tried it once but the bag of shit bopping along with me on the walk, just didn’t sit well. I thought it would be a great photo for shaming purposes so I recreated the photo, but typically I don’t walk with it like that! It grosses me out.
Jen K said, “Haha! I am not willing to take the risk of tying Newfoundland-sized poop to my pants”
Um yeah, I don’t blame you on that one! Lab size is bad enough!
That’s my wrap up for the week. Don’t forget to swing by and say hello to Sue and the gang. This is the Follow-Up Friday Blog Hop hosted by The Golden Life and Heart Like a Dog.

Ah, missed the earlier mention of going while walking. Our foster dog Louis would pee while walking in a zig zag and we called it a ziddle.
emma says
Great idea using that ball tool for cookies, never thought of that either. I would never tie poop to myself either. If I did I would for sure trip, fall, and the bag would open and spread the poop all over me. TGIF!
weliveinaflat says
I just make for the nearest bin and bin the poop asap! 😀
Sand Spring Chesapeakes says
Have a great weekend and upcoming week. Will miss your posts while I am gone. Don’t let the shit bags hit you in the ass on your walk! 🙂
Molly The Wally says
Great follow up. Have a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly
Meld says
Well you are just full of shut today aren’t you? 😀
Cupcake also walks and poops. Calling Cupake shitwalker would seem wrong, but I have called her the poop walker before. 🙂
Great stuff today Jodi.
SUGAR: Golden Woofs says
You might have missed all our raving posts about TheFifthPaw that you can attached on your leash and can carry multiple bags. Sugar is also the model of the company’s ad. Check it out if not let us know. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Ducky's Mom says
Naw, if you happen to see someone not picking up after their own dog, yell to them to get their a$$es back there & pick it up. If they refuse, run ahead of them, snap a picture of their face. THEN, when you get home, put a caption like “this person does not clean up his/her dog’s poop”, print a bazillion copies, and plaster them all over the park and town.
2 brown dawgs says
Fun fun FUF! This week your blog theme seemed to be poop….lol.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Sue at Talking Dogs says
Great follow up. Love that photo of Sampsom 🙂
Flea says
Sugar’s Fifth Paw is a brilliant invention.
If you’re going to the park with a pail and scoop, definitely walk behind other dog owners. If they don’t scoop, make a show of picking up after their dog. Gah!
Now I want cookies.
Roxy the traveling dog says
I love Flea’s suggestion above, good idea. Great follow up too.
Frankie and Ernie says
Now since we were AWAY on VaCa… we REALLY appreciate your Follow-Up-Friday this time. Now we are caught up and it was fabulous. THANKS!!!
jan says
Talk of poop bags always makes me grateful for small dogs, premium food, small turds.
Ducky's Mom says
As always, it was fun co-hosting for you Jodi! As you can see from my reply to Sugar’s comment, I wouldn’t be quite so nice to people who don’t clean up after their dogs. Especially if the dog’s poop is right there in front of me on the trail.
Donna says
“We call her “Delilah shit walker.”
No wonder why she took such joy in shaming you! 🙂
Dawn says
Great follow up! Talking about poop and pumpkin patties in the same post is a bit odd. I didn’t know whether to say “yuck” or “yum”. 😉
Kolchak, Felix & Jodi says
You had a cookie scoop and didn’t use it? ROTFLMAO, I love you Jodi Stone.
