Does your dog walk when they poop? Sampson does not. He simply squats, drops and then he’s done. Delilah on the other hand, Delilah squats and while she’s dropping, she sometimes walks.
We call her Delilah Shitwalker. 🙂
Before I leave for work in the morning, I let Delilah out to potty. Usually she runs out, tinkles and runs back in, but the other morning she tinkled and then she pooped.
I came out on the deck just to catch the grand finale.
See if you can figure out what happened by the diagram I made on this photo.
Did you guess?
She started over by the barrel (that’s where Hubby burns leaves), then she walked on the front side of the barrel, then between the wood pile and the shed. When she had finished she was over by the wood pile.
She turned around, sniffed the poop and I’m not sure why, but decided she couldn’t go back the way she’d come.
She tried going behind the woodpile and under the deck, decided that wasn’t working. Then she thought she could go over the woodpile, but then decided that wasn’t working either. She went back to under the deck, back to the woodpile, back to under the deck, before finally carefully walking OVER the woodpile.
And that made me laugh.
You make me laugh, or smile. The sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do that brings a smile to my face or a laugh to my lips.
What did your pet do that made you smile this week?

We have a friend with sled dogs who trains them to poop while running. Weirdest thing to see! I take my time pooping as I do with everything in life. From when I was a tiny puppy I have always squatted and then often make grunting, squeezing noises which never fail to crack my mom up. None of us walk much while doing our business. Good for Delilah not wanting to go back by her poo.

Shadow is very much the lady when doing her business, unless she’s having a bit of trouble. Ducky, on the other hand, has to make a grand production of her potty sessions. But, that’s okay because she is my little drama queen. Everything – and I do mean everything – has to be done with flair for her royal highness. 🙄

The Poodles always go to the back of the yard facing away from me to poop. I wish I knew what was in their little Poodle brains.

No sh*twalkers at the Ranch…anymore that is as the sheepdogs when they were alive would do that on our walks which I always figured they were just multitasking because they always had places to go-things to do and couldn’t be bothered stopping. Wouldn’t you just love to be able to understand their thought processes? 😄

Lee sometimes does that. Makes it harder to pick up!

Delilah, you are too funny! Cricket poops, and even sometimes pees, when on the move. I think she’s so high strung that she just can’t stay still for anything!
And Luke, like Sampson, gets it all done quickly and in one place. LOL
Pamela says
He he he! Honey will take a step or two but nothing like Delilah’s walk around the park.
Of course, Honey only does it in the dark. It takes two of us to watch her go and mark the spot so we can clean it all up.

I just went searching back, and realized you cancelled your Pet Blogger Showcase. I’m sorry it ended, I was discovering new bloggers, but I can see why you ended it. Maybe try again at some future date, on the first of each month?
