    Update on Lacy

    This is an update as promised to the original thread posted back in the fall. Apologize for replying so late for all those who replied to the OP.

    2 Black labs

    Well, I bought that house in the country as planned, so more land to be creative with. Long story short. No matter the size of the designated play and poop area, if you want to break a habit in a dog, you have to take away any means of getting that which is harmful for them.

    Even with a large yard and designated areas, you will still have to wait until the stool is dried, then rake it through the fence opening.

    So, to all those that said “ the only resolution is to pick up after your dogs so they won’t each other’s stool”.

    In a sense you were right, instead of picking it up, I am raking out of the play areas regularly. So, getting rid of the excess seems to be a 30 second chore, no big deal.


    Otherwise, Abby is 10 this year and showing her age. Gray bearded, two MCL repairs , I am holding on as long as I am afforded. As many of you know her rescue story out of Florida.

    Lacy is five, doing much better with skin issue since nit eating stool and taking high omega fish oil.

    That’s about it. Hope you all are doing well.
