We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.
What's grosser? Learning about how to tell a good poo or not? Or actually practicing perfect poos? I'd rather see a pic, than put on a rubber glove and test surface tension of said poo.

What the heck. Why do you need to touch it when you can clearly see it? Plus you use something like a rake or a shovel, not your fingers to pick up poo unless you're on a walk and gotta use a poo bag. You should go outside and look for dog poo and then you will learn....
Tarry poo is like the name. It's black and tarry. I think it's pooing old blood.
Did you know if you eat enough beets, you'll pee and poo purple?
Great poo chart! Just adding a "yes" to the black tarry poo statement- it is usually old blood or blood from further up inside the GI tract. It's a pretty serious issue for humans and animals alike.
We used to take Brinks out on leash so we saw his poo all of the time. It's what helped us get to the diagnosis that he has stress-induced colitis or Irritable Bowel. We don't freak out if he reaches a #5 or #6 on the poo scale anymore (as long as it's back to 2-3 in a day or two). Now that we have a fenced in yard we just watch from afar- we've learned the squatting signs and can even pick out the form of the poo from 50-75 yards away (is that a skill I can put on a resume? Lol). Anyway, my point is, once you learn the signs you won't have to follow your dogs every poo.
