A few days ago, I was in a phase of doing some semi-shit posts. My first line actually proclaimed this to be the case and yet today I received a @curie vote for what I thought was a little poo.
Thanks to @steevc who stated that I don’t do shit posts I had the opportunity to prove him wrong today.
While wandering the wilderness today I came across something I have not seen since the 1980s; ‘White Dog Shit'.
If you were born during or after the 80's you may well have never seen this beautiful sight before. What puzzles me is how it got there?
@mender1 (who was with me at the time) informed me that it was due to the dog food of those times containing high amounts of chalk.
I do wonder if the mortality rate of our pooches has gotten any better since then.
A check on the internet proves his theory to be correct.
a product of the 1970's, white dog shit was everywhere! it was all over the place because once upon a time high quantities of chalk were added to tins of dog food therefore when a dog would take a shit after a few days in the sunshine the poo would dry out and eventually turn white. Nowadays pet food manufacturers don't use chalk in their food and this is why we don't see any more white dog shit lying around.
This stuff was everywhere during my childhood and teen years and yet I always thought it was due to it being old as nobody picked up dog shit then.
I learned something today, and feel enlightened about my increased knowledge.
It seems I was mistaken. Aren’t you glad you read this? You are now wiser about the history of Dog Shit. Yes, this is truly a shit post.
If you found this article so invigorating that you are now a positively googly-eyed, drooling lunatic with dripping saliva or even if you liked it just a bit, then please upvote, comment, resteem, engage me or all of these things.
I have to wonder if maybe the chalk was actually better for dogs back in the day than some of the crap they put in their food now which fills it out but is actually cheaper than chalk -- and possibly more disgusting.
I always thought white ... well, you know ... was from dogs who'd been chowing down on a goodly portion of bones. Our dogs, for example, still get those things ... and like all good dogs down through the eons, they absolutely love them.
I can't say I've made a study of the results comparable to the contents of this post (that is not a subtle comment on what one might actually think about the contents of this post -- if I have a comment on that, I'll come right out straight and tell you) -- but there's obviously a high calcium content in bones. (One of the reasons dogs are said to love them.) And chalk / calcium / maybe bone meal. All pretty much the same thing IYAM.
Maybe I should ask my dogs their opinions instead. I'll let you know what they have to say on the subject. Although I'm not sure Google translator is up to the job of rendering their comments in English. We may have to come up with another approach.
Shit. I have no idea what that approach might be.

There is some terrible quality stuff about. The one we started with made our dog stink.. we ditched it and the pungency stopped.
I do wonder if this will end in up TheWhistleStop. As there's only one tasteful photograph I kind of goaded you by posting it in the Baggage area heheh....

In America, it would be white because of all the pharmacological residue that makes its way untouched through wastewater treatment plants and back into rivers where a downriver dog food plant utilizes it.

Holy white dog shit! This is the important information I crave. I too as an 80s baby assumed it was just well baked turds, never would I have thought chalky food was the culprit. Chalk?!? Why?!?
That scene from Stepbrothers where Dale's child bully forces Brennan to lick the white 💩 is somehow now even more classic..

Damn. I thought I'd hit the top of the shitpost heap when I used a picture of Sam dumping a deuce in the desert as my thumbnail. I've now been clearly outdone. Oh the humanity of it.
Now I can go confidently on my way knowing that I can't possibly have the shit post of the day. Pure freedom.

Well you learn something new every day! I was told that this was caused by calcification after the poo had been exposed to the elements for a while. I thought the reason you didn't see white poo any more was because owners scooped it up before it could turn white! Now I know the truth lol. Thanks for enlightening me.
