Long time readers will know I have a thing for potty humor. Honestly, some of my best posts and subsequent comments come when I write a post about dog poop. I have no idea where this comes from. I just know that me and a friend of mine, find an awful lot of humor discussing poop.
A long time ago we found the Ultimate Poopie list. We got a lot of laughs from that list.
When you walk dogs you pick up poop. When you pick up poop (or watch your dog poop) you think of things. Things like the Ultimate Poopie list. Somehow this weekend while I was walking the dogs and thinking about this, I started thinking about a poopie list for dogs. Then somehow, I got side-tracked with Fairy Tales and before you know it, I came up with Grimms Brothers type poopie list for dogs. Special thanks to my friend One Person’s View for the awesome title.
So without further ado here is my Grimm Poopie list for dogs. This one’s for you David!
- The Rapunzel (a.k.a. Where did that long hair come from?) The poopie that looks like it’s trying to climb down from a tower, but just can’t manage it. (Sometimes you gotta help a puppy out.)
- The Aladdin – You wish you had a Genie to make the big, smelly poopie disappear.
- The Little Red Riding Hood – This happens when you’re staring at your dog’s bung hole and that little red eyelid thing shows up, freaking you out and causing you to frantically text your vet tech friends and in a blind panic, you call your vet hyperventilating thinking there is something wrong.
- The Hansel and Gretel – Because some dogs walk while they’re doing their business and effectively leave a trail indicating where they’ve been.
- The Rumpelstiltskin – Siriusly, the boxer down the street told them there was a way to turn tennis ball fuzz into gold.
- The Pinocchio (a.k.a. poop doesn’t lie) – I swear mom, I did not eat your (insert item here). The proof (as they say) is in the pudding…in a manner of speaking.
- The Little Engine that Could – Sometimes it just takes time.
- The Dog Who Cried Wolf – I really did have to go, it’s just I saw a squirrel and got distracted.
- The Ugly Duckling – No explanation required.
Not fairy tales, but certainly classics.
- The Wizard of Oz – the poopie is so big and smelly you’ll wish you weren’t in Kansas anymore.
- Alice in Wonderland – You wonder how a dog that small can make a poopie THAT big, or how a dog that BIG can have such a small poopie.
Of course some poopies are just like children’s games – Hide ‘N Go Seek – You know the dog poopied, you saw the dog poopie, you just have to go and find it.

I often play ‘hunt the poop’ when I am out walking.
Molly The Wally says

Best wishes Molly
Emma says
LOL! We had the moldy looking poo a while back when Bailie ate the stuffing out of her toy. For an entire day she pooped mostly white fluff bonded with brown glue…yuck! I myself am the little engine that could. I grunt and grown, rock from side to side, push, and push…Mom says if I was a human I would be the one reading on the toilet.
2 brown dawgs says
LOL poopie humor. Saw a lot of those marshaling the hunt test this past weekend.
Frankie and Ernie says
OKAY I (Frankie Furter) will tell on Ernie… he is a HANSEL.
Mary says
LOL Jodi, you are a classic. Classic what, I’m not so sure.
Callie, Shadow, and Ducky's Mom says
OH. MY. GOD!!! You are just TOO funny!! I’m glad you didn’t post it on the Tasty Tuesday Blog Hop!!
jan says
Sooner or later all dog blogs must encounter the subject of poop which is so natural to dogs and which humans try to pretend doesn’t exist. But this was the funniest of all poop posts.
Jenna,Mark “HuskyCrazed” Drady says

DZ Dogs says
Hahaha! It was pure curiosity in the ewwwww factor of your title, but I had to read it! You’re hilarious!
Blueberry's human says
This had me rolling! I had to get up and shut my door at work – I pretty much lost it at Rapunzel. My intense laughter often sounds like crying so I’m pretty sure I will get some sympathetic looks from my co-workers when I open my door again.
Oh boy – I wonder if the next time I have to help B out with a Rapunzel I will think of this post and onlookers will see my shoulders shaking in mirth while doing so.
You outdid yourself with this post. 🙂 Class is overrated anyway.
patricia from MEMA pets says
RIGHT?!? I feel so bad when my dogs have rapunzels! Because I know it’s my fault, I always have to help them out, and they always have that scared “what is it! get it out get it out!” look on their little faces. oh Jodi I think you just invented a new thing!!
Rebekah says
I’m dying. Seriously. Cannot stop laughing!
one person's view says
How about the Goldilocks? “This spot is too high. This spot is too low. This spot is too east. This spot is too west. AH! THIS SPOT IS JUST RIGHT!” Aka, the Poopie Dance.
Beth says
The Dog Who Cried Wolf is one of Barley’s favorites. It always happens before agility class–She’ll do the “Goldilocks” that One Person’s View mentioned and finally find the right spot, but then someone will pull up into the parking lot and say “Hi Barley” and then it all starts all over.
Patty says
LOL thank you for the morning laugh!
Pamela | Something Wagging This Way Comes says
I blew milk out my nose! I love your Grimm Poopie Tales.
The worst one I’ve ever witnessed was Snow White and Rose Red, or the scary results when a dog eats your lipstick.
So you’ve inspired tomorrow’s post. And you’ll have to apologize to everyone who gets grossed out by it.
Sherri Petrie says
Jodi – I don’t think I have laughed so hard in a long time… and the whole time I’m reading all I can see is a bunch of dancing doggie behinds illustrating what I have just read. BOL BOL BOL
