@pansyface Good to see you back and in top form!!! Dog loo. Eeuw! Wren is little Miss Whippie. I just pick hers up and bin it. None of this saving it for later lark!
Hello PP, yes but when I had 3 dogs 2 quite big there was a huge amount,you dont "save it for later", you pop it in as soon as you pick up, then the none toxic chemical degrades it safely, but it couldnt cope with 3 dogs, and was quite expensive, they never "did" anything while on a walk, saved it for the garden (still do), digging the hole for the thing was a huge task and it didnt cope with the amount, now I have a small plastic bin, tight lid in the garden, liner and then in the bags. I asked somewhere, not on here, in the days of saving the planet/plastic, what do you use instead of plastic poo bags, never go any answers. Luckily, we are allowed to put in in the household waste.
Don’t have a dog so maybe this is a silly question... If the dog is doing it’s business in the garden, rather than picking it up and putting it in a plastic bag to go to landfill, why not scoop it up and flush it down the loo?
I know that is not the end of the problem but it’s going to a designated sewerage treatment plant, septic tank - whatever - where it will be properly broken down along with all the human waste. I certainly used to put fur balls and cat vomit down the loo when there was a little present waiting for me at the foot of the stairs.
Feeling a little 🤢 now after thinking about that😊
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
Morning Dove Our manhole covers were an eyesore & trip hazard. They are now set into the ground with paving slabs or gravel on them so they are somewhat disguised. Takes a man who's eaten his spinach to lift one of those

LOL Topbird Ours is also well disguised ... but then the nearest things we have to pets are hedgehogs, frogs and fat woodpigeons who sit on the trellis and eye the pigeon-proof birdfeeders in a confused befuddled sort of way

Untreated sewage has to be injected into the soil or worked into the soil where micro-organisms can get to work breaking it down ... only treated sewage can be pumped straight onto the fields ... it's actually a strictly regulated operation thank goodness.
