The girl and her dog, they were fine (wow). Until...

Sure, picking up poop is gross, but you know what is more gross?  NOT picking it up! No matter your day job, if you have a dog, this is just part of your duty.  Check out superstar Pink pictured here doing her job at the beach, demonstrating that you can look good scooping.  Even billionaire Mark Zuckerberg scoops poop.

I bet most of you are hip to the scooping, but some people make the rest of our owners look bad.  Enter Puget Sound Starts Here, a partnership of regional governments dedicated to improving water quality of streams, lakes and rivers.  The Doo Doogity campaign is working hard to curb irresponsible owners through innovative marketing--not by scolding them, but my making poop scooping cool!  

They produced this fun video spoofing the Blackstreet & Dr. Dre "No Diggity" song with clever lyrics like "The girl and her dog, they were fine (wow). Until they left a doodie, that's a crime (bow wow)."  Catchy, huh? Check out the whole video:

  1. We live in a neighborhood where many people own dogs and most of them have no problem picking up after them. However, there are those few who don’t and they make me crazy mad.

    I registered a formal complaint with city hall as did a few others but nothings seems to change their attitude of being too good to scoop poop. So, I started picking up after them and dumping their dog’s stinky mess on their front stoops. Do you think that helped? Nope!

  2. Hi there,
    If you are still writing about dogs and poop, you might like to check out our new book, "The Pet Poo Pocket Guide: How to Safely Compost and Recycle Pet Waste". Drop me a line and I will send you a review copy.

    Thanks,
    EJ
