00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Hey, welcome to the short Stuff, Josh Chuck, Jerry Dave.

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 2: Let's get all right, this is our episode on dog poop.

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: That's right, you can't say poop.

4
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 2: Dog poop, white dog poop.

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Specifically white dog poop, the same white dog poop that

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: Sarah Silverman saying about, same white dog poop that shows

7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 1: up in Stepbrothers, which is probably the only reason why

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: people who were born after the late eighties are aware

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: that white dog poop pep even ever existed.

10
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: I don't know the Sarah Silverman bit. And I've seen

11
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: Stepbrothers a bunch, and I don't remember the white dog

12
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 2: poop in that one.

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: Those neighborhood bullies, the kids they make Will Ferrell touch

14
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: his tongue to the white dog.

15
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. And you know what, until

16
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: you said this, I didn't notice that. I don't notice

17
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: white dog poop.

18
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: Oh really, I definitely did. It was a mainstay while

19
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: we were growing up, Like it was a thing when

20
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: you were walking down the sidewalk in your neighborhood and

21
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: you just look to your left in somebody's yard, there

22
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: were piles of white dog poop, and you do not

23
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: see that these days.

24
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 2: I never thought about it until you sent this, And

25
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,919
Speaker 2: there is a reason why. And I thought the reason

26
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 2: was going to be as simple as people pick up

27
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 2: their dog poop more than they did in the eighties.

28
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: That is absolutely wrong.

29
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's calcium, right.

30
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, the diet of dogs changed dramatically in the late

31
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: eighties early nineties, and the thing that was giving these

32
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: dogs white dog poop, or making dogs poop white, was

33
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 1: an overabundance of calcium that was in standard dog food

34
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: at the time.

35
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, dog food was pretty bad back then. There's still

36
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: tons of bad dog food and pet food in general,

37
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 2: but there's lots of really good stuff now. Back then

38
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 2: it was very much loaded with bone meal and some meat.

39
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: But basically it's that bone meal, lots of calcium and bones.

40
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: And you know, calcium is good to dogs. You know,

41
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 2: a little bit of calcium is fine, but if you

42
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 2: have too much of it, you can't absorb it. It

43
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 2: comes out in your poop and it doesn't come out white,

44
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 2: but it dries up in the sun, and once the

45
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 2: water is removed, it turned that chalky white.

46
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think ifl science compared it to when humans

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: take like vitamins and we don't absorb all of it, it

48
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: just comes out in our pea. Same thing with calcium

49
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: and dog's diets, like after they have as much as

50
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: they need, they just pass it in their poop. And

51
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: then also one of the other problems with that dog

52
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: food in the sixties, seventies and eighties is that the

53
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: way that the bones were rendered made it even harder

54
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: to absorb, so a lot of that calcium. They might

55
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: not have even been getting enough calcium from the food,

56
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: they just weren't absorbing it. They were passing it. So

57
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: if the poop wasn't coming out white, which I can attest.

58
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: I had a dog in the eighties.

59
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 2: What was your dog's name?

60
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: Well, there were a few, but jingle Bells j was

61
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: a great one. God JB was such a good dog.

62
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: We brought her home and put her in the fence

63
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: for the first time. I went to the shelter and

64
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: brought her home and she just looked at us and

65
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: jumped right over the fence, and we're like, oh, this

66
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: one's gonna be trouble. She was, but she was a

67
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: great dog. And then the other one was ll llban.

68
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: Those are the two dogs I had in the eighties.

69
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: That's great, that's a very eighties dog name.

70
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, she was so sweet. I'll just tell you one anecdote,

71
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: real quick. Ell was a I guess kind of a

72
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: Shepherd mix Doberman Shepherd mix, kind of super sweet, super

73
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: sad eyes, just the sweetest dog. She just looked like

74
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: she'd seen too much in life, even though I know

75
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: for a fact she hadn't. She's had kind of the

76
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: old soul thing going on. And she was roommates with

77
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: a dog named Hershey, little Schnauzer, and Hershey would fall

78
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: into the pool every once in a while, and Ell,

79
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: who was a great swimmer, would go in and swim

80
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: over to her and push her nut sure towards the

81
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: steps so they could both get out. I saw it

82
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,119
Speaker 1: more than once. That's how good a dog.

83
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 2: Al L was well very quickly. Then I, as a

84
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: child had the big two were Huggy Bear and Bo.

85
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 2: Huggy Bear was a German Shepherd that had floppy ears,

86
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: and Bo was a Basset hound who would step on

87
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 2: its ears they were so long. And we know I've

88
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 2: talked about it before, but we kept our dogs outside.

89
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,799
Speaker 2: My parents did that. We had a big, probably quarter

90
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: acre dog fenceton dog pen with a very large doghouse

91
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 2: built on it. And when Huggy Bear died, Bo died

92
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 2: not long after because of a broken heart, we think.

93
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 2: And one day my parents came home and found me

94
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: laying in their doghouse.

95
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: Crying that sweet hew old were you, I.

96
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: Don't remember, probably like nine or ten.

97
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: Man, that is sweet Chuck would be a guest.

98
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 2: But anyway, you were talking before we digressed about your

99
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 2: dogs in the eighties.

100
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so we both had dogs in the eighties,

101
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: and we could attest that their poop didn't come out white.

102
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: It magically became white as time war on.

103
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 2: That's right, And we could stop here with some heartwarming

104
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 2: stories and the answer that question. But because we do

105
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,679
Speaker 2: what we do, we're gonna talk more about dog food

106
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: and dog poop right after this, all right, we promised

107
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: to talk more about dog food. It used to be

108
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: not as good, like we said, full of bone meal

109
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. But after World War Two there

110
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: was a better economy and many more dogs became household

111
00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 2: pets and over time, and of course it's really exploded

112
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 2: in the past like fifteen to twenty years, but even

113
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 2: back then, people realize, manufacturers realized that there was a

114
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: lot of money to be made in the pet industry,

115
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: and dog foods started very slowly to become a little

116
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 2: bit better and then got really really good in the

117
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: past fifteen years.

118
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: Well, they got worse before they got better, for sure,

119
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: because when they figured out that they could mass produce

120
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 1: this stuff and sell it like gangbusters, they were like, well,

121
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: what's the cheapest stuff we can put in here that

122
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: won't actually kill the dogs most likely horse, So they

123
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: started putting well, the horse was actually earlier in the

124
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: century before World War Two. And then everybody's like, this

125
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: is just wrong somehow, we don't can't put our finger

126
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: on it, but we are not going to feed our

127
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: dog's horse meat anymore.

128
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

129
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: After World War Two, that's when they started extruding stuff

130
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: which apparently extracts a lot of vitamins and nutrients from food.

131
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: They started adding a lot of fillers that are super cheap,

132
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: and the food we were feeding our dogs was just

133
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: tear and they came loaded with calcium.

134
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: That's right. And like I said, food got better and

135
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 2: better over the years, especially more recently, and these days

136
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 2: there's a lot of debate on like what you should

137
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 2: be feeding your pets. Everything kind of points to like

138
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: real food. Like, if you're the best pet owner in

139
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 2: the world, you're cooking your dog food and vegetables and

140
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: stuff like that.

141
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, for sure, you Mey cooks that for all

142
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: the time. You know, there's also some pretty good stuff

143
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: you can order too. Yeah, oh yeah, but yeah, it's

144
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: I think that's probably dogs have the healthiest diet as

145
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: a group now in their entire history with humans.

146
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, dogs love veggies. I feed my dog's table

147
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,119
Speaker 2: scrap veggies all the time, and all of my dogs

148
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 2: even before this crew, have loved vegetables. But I think

149
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 2: they just like any kind of human food. They rarely

150
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 2: see them turn their little noses up at anything.

151
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure, Like Mama will eat stuff I won't eat,

152
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: like peas.

153
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:03,679
Speaker 2: Oh I love peas.

154
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: So you said that dog food got better and better.

155
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: The thing is is the reason why white dog poop

156
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: suddenly disappeared is because it suddenly got better around the

157
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: late eighties and nineties, Like people started being like, this

158
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: is not stop selling us this stuff. It's not good

159
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: for our dogs. And there was a quick change in

160
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: the industry, and that led to lower amounts of calcium,

161
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: which led to lower amounts of white white dog poop. Yeah,

162
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: until it essentially just went away.

163
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they got more fiber in their diet now and

164
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 2: just you know, more nutrient and vitamin rich dog food.

165
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 2: I'm now noticing. I guess that I think about it,

166
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 2: but I honestly never really thought about it until yesterday

167
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 2: when I started reading up on this stuff that I

168
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 2: guess you really don't see as much white dog poop anymore.

169
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: And there's also like it's still not done. Like we're

170
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 1: dogs definitely eat better than ever, but we're still like, well,

171
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: wait a minute, can they exist on a vegan diet?

172
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. Is dry dog food better than wet?

173
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: Apparently wet dog food has eight times the greenhouse gas

174
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: emissions of dry dog food, But if you ask the dog,

175
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: they're like, no, we want we want wet. There's so

176
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: the jury is still out, but it is clear that

177
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: dog food is more is healthier than it ever has

178
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: been in the history of dog food.

179
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. We back when we had Lucy before she left us,

180
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 2: she had autoimmune issues Lucy and Buckley did, and so

181
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 2: grain free diet. That's when we started sort of going

182
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: grain free back then, and we kind of kept on

183
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 2: that train through this new batch.

184
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen grain can be kind of hard on

185
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: dogs sometimes. Yeah, it's not uncommon from what I saw too.

186
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: And then fats too, depending on the kind of fat,

187
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: it can lead to pancreatitis pretty quickly in dogs or

188
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: even gastritis. And you don't want either of those because

189
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: once they start, they can become chronic and that's sad

190
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: for the dog because they have to eat the most

191
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: boring blane diet imaginable.

192
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 2: Should we finish up on what dog poop should look like,

193
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 2: let's and now, if your dog is healthy, generally looks

194
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 2: like because of the lack of calcium.

195
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. If you see white poop now and it's speckled white,

196
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: that's probably worms and you want to do something about that.

197
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. And if you see the old school white poop,

198
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: that means you know, someone's living seventy style, so it's

199
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 2: got a big stash of I'm not going to name

200
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 2: check any brands, but you know, what we fed people

201
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: in the eighties are what we fed dogs in the eighties.

202
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: They also raw diets often contain ground up bones, and

203
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: that can cause the old school white dog poop too.

204
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, So normal dog poop is a tube of poop.

205
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 2: It should be firm and it should be like a

206
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 2: light like chocolatey brown.

207
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's thanks to our friends at All Dogs Poop,

208
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: the dog waste cleaning service.

209
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 2: Which is amazing. What should it not look like?

210
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: Well, if it's orange, it means that your dog is

211
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: not digesting it slowly enough. It's just kind of passing

212
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: through largely undigested or too undigested, and it'll come out orange,

213
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: and you want to look into that.

214
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: What if it's yellow.

215
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: If it's yellow, that means it probably has some mucus

216
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: in it, which means that your dog is not tolerating

217
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: its food very well. Usually the reason why is because

218
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: you just switched their diet radically and all of a sudden.

219
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 2: All right, If it's green, you know what that means?

220
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: That means your dog's out there eating grass, probably because

221
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 2: it has a little tum tum problem. I think that's

222
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: usually when dogs mouond weeds and grass. But that can

223
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 2: come out in the poop as grass.

224
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: What about don't.

225
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 2: Doesn't change much? Gray is no good? That means you're

226
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: you got too much fat in the diet.

227
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and again that can lead to pancreatitis.

228
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: And finally, red.

229
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially if there's red, that means your dog has

230
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: blood in its stool, which means you should pick them

231
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: up and take them to the vet. Right, then that's right.

232
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 1: But also don't discount black tari stool. A lot of

233
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 1: people don't realize that that means there's blood. They're bleeding

234
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: internally as well. It's just higher up in the digestive tract,

235
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: so it gets incorporated in the poop earlier and more

236
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: completely than something like the blood that's red streaky, that

237
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: means it's happening in the lower digestive tract.

238
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. I've been a wash in dog poop lately because

239
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 2: very sadly, our fourteen year old Charlie is becoming a

240
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 2: little bit incontinent. And she's doing great, but she's got

241
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 2: very stiff little peg leg back legs, and she's starting

242
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 2: to just poop when the poop is there, instead of

243
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: saying like I can make it to the door and

244
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: asks to be let out. Yeah, it's no fun. But

245
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: you don't put a dog down because you don't like

246
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 2: cleaning up their poop.

247
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: No, you just yell at them.

248
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 2: So you just we're cleaning up a lot of dog

249
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: beep lately.

250
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: Did you say dog beep? Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

251
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 2: That's all right. It's no fun, but especially when you

252
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 2: wake up in the middle of the night and it's

253
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 2: like that's the smell wakes you up. Yeah, that's and

254
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 2: it's just it's aging is no fun, aging animals, it's

255
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 2: no fun. But we're in the middle of it. What

256
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 2: are you gonna do?

257
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: Just yell at the dog.

258
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: No, stop saying that.

259
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: We want to thank our friends at IFL Science Mental Flaws,
