So, here's the deal, our border collie, Oliver, has decided dry dog poo is a play toy. There's a field to our south and all our dogs have been trained to go there to relieve themselves -- and they do, even Oliver -- but then he wants to hunt around in the tall grass, find a bit of old poo and bring it back and put it on the front porch or sidewalk. Right where it's in plain view and the UPS man has to step over it. He doesn't eat it -- thank gawd -- but almost every day he runs over when I'm not watching him, gets another piece and brings it back. I've scolded him and made him come with me while I carry it on shovel back to the field where it belongs, but he's not getting the hint. I've tried poop-scooping as much as possible from the field but it's tall grass and I can't see all of it.
Any ideas?
