Recycling Dog Poop

Date May 6, 2008

I’m sitting here listening to NPR this morning in my pajamas.  There is a piece on recycling waste across the world and making bio-fuels.  I am wondering why we can’t recycle dog poop.  Does anyone know of a place who actually uses poop for anything?  It is a thought.  Maybe one day we could start cars with dog poop.  Dog poop is everywhere - there is a lot of it and hey, why not use it.

I will be honest and tell you that I pick up all the dog poop in the back yard from Brutus and Little Girl and place in a large bucket (way in the back) and then bury it so I don’t waste so many plastic bags.  On walks I use biodegradable doggy bags from Planet Dog.  They are wonderful.

Anyway, enough of poop talk - but if you know of a place that uses dog pop, let me know.  Little Girl would be happy to hear about it.

    Could you send me some of those or bring them (not the poop, the bags!) when you visit?

    I have a friend who bought some sort of container & worms kit that’s supposed to turn dog poop into fertilizer, but I haven’t gotten an update on how well it’s working out. I’ll have to give her a call and find out…
