Surely it's less humiliating in your own garden ? My 2 only go when out on walks - but as they only go twice a day it's not too bad.

It is less humiliating, of course it is, but yep, Loki is a pup and is going rather a lot at the moment. The consistency is just fine but a bit does get left on the grass - I just wondered if there is anything to spray on to decompose. I might pop into the pet shop and see if they have anything. Mind you, that didn't work with the anti-chew stuff - he loves it!

I feed Bailey on Nutro puppy food and he only goes once a day and it's quite solid too, so no mess

The laws of nature including birds and insects will soon remove any small amount left behind in the grass, but if it bothers you I would use the hose. Personally think and chemical would be worse than the poo, providing the pup is well wormed it is just unpleasant not dangerous.

Hi LS Try this, buy some fine sand from the DIY or garden center and fill a bucket. Clean up the worst of the dog poo then scoop a little pile of sand on top of what is left ,leave for a bit to absorb then remove with a trowel. I don't have this problem since I feed Burns which has a low amount of residual waste.
