WEBVTT - Short Stuff: White Dog Poop

0:00:04.200 --> 0:00:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Hey, welcome to the short Stuff, Josh Chuck, Jerry Dave.

0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:11.160
<v Speaker 2>Let's get all right, this is our episode on dog poop.

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:13.960
<v Speaker 1>That's right, you can't say poop.

0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:15.840
<v Speaker 2>Dog poop, white dog poop.

0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Specifically white dog poop, the same white dog poop that

0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Silverman saying about, same white dog poop that shows

0:00:22.520 --> 0:00:26.120
<v Speaker 1>up in Stepbrothers, which is probably the only reason why

0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:30.920
<v Speaker 1>people who were born after the late eighties are aware

0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:33.160
<v Speaker 1>that white dog poop pep even ever existed.

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:36.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know the Sarah Silverman bit. And I've seen

0:00:36.120 --> 0:00:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Stepbrothers a bunch, and I don't remember the white dog

0:00:38.120 --> 0:00:38.880
<v Speaker 2>poop in that one.

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Those neighborhood bullies, the kids they make Will Ferrell touch

0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:43.800
<v Speaker 1>his tongue to the white dog.

0:00:43.800 --> 0:00:46.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. And you know what, until

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:50.680
<v Speaker 2>you said this, I didn't notice that. I don't notice

0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:51.560
<v Speaker 2>white dog poop.

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh really, I definitely did. It was a mainstay while

0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>we were growing up, Like it was a thing when

0:00:58.880 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 1>you were walking down the sidewalk in your neighborhood and

0:01:02.320 --> 0:01:05.320
<v Speaker 1>you just look to your left in somebody's yard, there

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 1>were piles of white dog poop, and you do not

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:09.480
<v Speaker 1>see that these days.

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 2>I never thought about it until you sent this, And

0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:14.919
<v Speaker 2>there is a reason why. And I thought the reason

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:17.560
<v Speaker 2>was going to be as simple as people pick up

0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 2>their dog poop more than they did in the eighties.

0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 1>That is absolutely wrong.

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's calcium, right.

0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the diet of dogs changed dramatically in the late

0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:31.280
<v Speaker 1>eighties early nineties, and the thing that was giving these

0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:35.760
<v Speaker 1>dogs white dog poop, or making dogs poop white, was

0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:39.479
<v Speaker 1>an overabundance of calcium that was in standard dog food

0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:40.040
<v Speaker 1>at the time.

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, dog food was pretty bad back then. There's still

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.160
<v Speaker 2>tons of bad dog food and pet food in general,

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 2>but there's lots of really good stuff now. Back then

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 2>it was very much loaded with bone meal and some meat.

0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:58.560
<v Speaker 2>But basically it's that bone meal, lots of calcium and bones.

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 2>And you know, calcium is good to dogs. You know,

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of calcium is fine, but if you

0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:07.080
<v Speaker 2>have too much of it, you can't absorb it. It

0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:10.920
<v Speaker 2>comes out in your poop and it doesn't come out white,

0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 2>but it dries up in the sun, and once the

0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 2>water is removed, it turned that chalky white.

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think ifl science compared it to when humans

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 1>take like vitamins and we don't absorb all of it, it

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.040
<v Speaker 1>just comes out in our pea. Same thing with calcium

0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:29.360
<v Speaker 1>and dog's diets, like after they have as much as

0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 1>they need, they just pass it in their poop. And

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>then also one of the other problems with that dog

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 1>food in the sixties, seventies and eighties is that the

0:02:38.600 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 1>way that the bones were rendered made it even harder

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 1>to absorb, so a lot of that calcium. They might

0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:48.079
<v Speaker 1>not have even been getting enough calcium from the food,

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.520
<v Speaker 1>they just weren't absorbing it. They were passing it. So

0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 1>if the poop wasn't coming out white, which I can attest.

0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 1>I had a dog in the eighties.

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:57.200
<v Speaker 2>What was your dog's name?

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, there were a few, but jingle Bells j was

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>a great one. God JB was such a good dog.

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:05.880
<v Speaker 1>We brought her home and put her in the fence

0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:07.600
<v Speaker 1>for the first time. I went to the shelter and

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.640
<v Speaker 1>brought her home and she just looked at us and

0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>jumped right over the fence, and we're like, oh, this

0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:15.200
<v Speaker 1>one's gonna be trouble. She was, but she was a

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 1>great dog. And then the other one was ll llban.

0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>Those are the two dogs I had in the eighties.

0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:22.200
<v Speaker 2>That's great, that's a very eighties dog name.

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:27.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she was so sweet. I'll just tell you one anecdote,

0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:30.440
<v Speaker 1>real quick. Ell was a I guess kind of a

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Shepherd mix Doberman Shepherd mix, kind of super sweet, super

0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>sad eyes, just the sweetest dog. She just looked like

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>she'd seen too much in life, even though I know

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 1>for a fact she hadn't. She's had kind of the

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>old soul thing going on. And she was roommates with

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>a dog named Hershey, little Schnauzer, and Hershey would fall

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:56.600
<v Speaker 1>into the pool every once in a while, and Ell,

0:03:56.680 --> 0:03:59.520
<v Speaker 1>who was a great swimmer, would go in and swim

0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.000
<v Speaker 1>over to her and push her nut sure towards the

0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:03.840
<v Speaker 1>steps so they could both get out. I saw it

0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:06.119
<v Speaker 1>more than once. That's how good a dog.

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Al L was well very quickly. Then I, as a

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 2>child had the big two were Huggy Bear and Bo.

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:16.360
<v Speaker 2>Huggy Bear was a German Shepherd that had floppy ears,

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.120
<v Speaker 2>and Bo was a Basset hound who would step on

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 2>its ears they were so long. And we know I've

0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:26.359
<v Speaker 2>talked about it before, but we kept our dogs outside.

0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:28.799
<v Speaker 2>My parents did that. We had a big, probably quarter

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:33.200
<v Speaker 2>acre dog fenceton dog pen with a very large doghouse

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>built on it. And when Huggy Bear died, Bo died

0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 2>not long after because of a broken heart, we think.

0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 2>And one day my parents came home and found me

0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 2>laying in their doghouse.

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:52.159
<v Speaker 1>Crying that sweet hew old were you, I.

0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:53.920
<v Speaker 2>Don't remember, probably like nine or ten.

0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Man, that is sweet Chuck would be a guest.

0:04:56.600 --> 0:05:00.480
<v Speaker 2>But anyway, you were talking before we digressed about your

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:01.320
<v Speaker 2>dogs in the eighties.

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, so we both had dogs in the eighties,

0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:06.039
<v Speaker 1>and we could attest that their poop didn't come out white.

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.040
<v Speaker 1>It magically became white as time war on.

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:12.200
<v Speaker 2>That's right, And we could stop here with some heartwarming

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 2>stories and the answer that question. But because we do

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.679
<v Speaker 2>what we do, we're gonna talk more about dog food

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:43.760
<v Speaker 2>and dog poop right after this, all right, we promised

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 2>to talk more about dog food. It used to be

0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:48.960
<v Speaker 2>not as good, like we said, full of bone meal

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.520
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that. But after World War Two there

0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:55.520
<v Speaker 2>was a better economy and many more dogs became household

0:05:55.560 --> 0:06:00.480
<v Speaker 2>pets and over time, and of course it's really exploded

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.919
<v Speaker 2>in the past like fifteen to twenty years, but even

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:06.919
<v Speaker 2>back then, people realize, manufacturers realized that there was a

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 2>lot of money to be made in the pet industry,

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:13.120
<v Speaker 2>and dog foods started very slowly to become a little

0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.719
<v Speaker 2>bit better and then got really really good in the

0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 2>past fifteen years.

0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, they got worse before they got better, for sure,

0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.480
<v Speaker 1>because when they figured out that they could mass produce

0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:27.840
<v Speaker 1>this stuff and sell it like gangbusters, they were like, well,

0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:30.240
<v Speaker 1>what's the cheapest stuff we can put in here that

0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.840
<v Speaker 1>won't actually kill the dogs most likely horse, So they

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 1>started putting well, the horse was actually earlier in the

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.480
<v Speaker 1>century before World War Two. And then everybody's like, this

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 1>is just wrong somehow, we don't can't put our finger

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>on it, but we are not going to feed our

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 1>dog's horse meat anymore.

0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:45.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:49.200
<v Speaker 1>After World War Two, that's when they started extruding stuff

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 1>which apparently extracts a lot of vitamins and nutrients from food.

0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.719
<v Speaker 1>They started adding a lot of fillers that are super cheap,

0:06:57.200 --> 0:06:59.680
<v Speaker 1>and the food we were feeding our dogs was just

0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.600
<v Speaker 1>tear and they came loaded with calcium.

0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 2>That's right. And like I said, food got better and

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:10.680
<v Speaker 2>better over the years, especially more recently, and these days

0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of debate on like what you should

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:16.960
<v Speaker 2>be feeding your pets. Everything kind of points to like

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 2>real food. Like, if you're the best pet owner in

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.960
<v Speaker 2>the world, you're cooking your dog food and vegetables and

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:24.840
<v Speaker 2>stuff like that.

0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Right, Yeah, for sure, you Mey cooks that for all

0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 1>the time. You know, there's also some pretty good stuff

0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.840
<v Speaker 1>you can order too. Yeah, oh yeah, but yeah, it's

0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>I think that's probably dogs have the healthiest diet as

0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:41.720
<v Speaker 1>a group now in their entire history with humans.

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Absolutely, dogs love veggies. I feed my dog's table

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.119
<v Speaker 2>scrap veggies all the time, and all of my dogs

0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 2>even before this crew, have loved vegetables. But I think

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:56.440
<v Speaker 2>they just like any kind of human food. They rarely

0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 2>see them turn their little noses up at anything.

0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah for sure, Like Mama will eat stuff I won't eat,

0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>like peas.

0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:03.679
<v Speaker 2>Oh I love peas.

0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:07.560
<v Speaker 1>So you said that dog food got better and better.

0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:10.920
<v Speaker 1>The thing is is the reason why white dog poop

0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>suddenly disappeared is because it suddenly got better around the

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 1>late eighties and nineties, Like people started being like, this

0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 1>is not stop selling us this stuff. It's not good

0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 1>for our dogs. And there was a quick change in

0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 1>the industry, and that led to lower amounts of calcium,

0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:33.960
<v Speaker 1>which led to lower amounts of white white dog poop. Yeah,

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:36.079
<v Speaker 1>until it essentially just went away.

0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they got more fiber in their diet now and

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:45.679
<v Speaker 2>just you know, more nutrient and vitamin rich dog food.

0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm now noticing. I guess that I think about it,

0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:51.600
<v Speaker 2>but I honestly never really thought about it until yesterday

0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:53.640
<v Speaker 2>when I started reading up on this stuff that I

0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:56.080
<v Speaker 2>guess you really don't see as much white dog poop anymore.

0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:59.440
<v Speaker 1>And there's also like it's still not done. Like we're

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:01.959
<v Speaker 1>dogs definitely eat better than ever, but we're still like, well,

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:04.240
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute, can they exist on a vegan diet?

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Is dry dog food better than wet?

0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Apparently wet dog food has eight times the greenhouse gas

0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:14.960
<v Speaker 1>emissions of dry dog food, But if you ask the dog,

0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 1>they're like, no, we want we want wet. There's so

0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 1>the jury is still out, but it is clear that

0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.600
<v Speaker 1>dog food is more is healthier than it ever has

0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:27.040
<v Speaker 1>been in the history of dog food.

0:09:27.679 --> 0:09:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. We back when we had Lucy before she left us,

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:36.080
<v Speaker 2>she had autoimmune issues Lucy and Buckley did, and so

0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 2>grain free diet. That's when we started sort of going

0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:42.240
<v Speaker 2>grain free back then, and we kind of kept on

0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:43.920
<v Speaker 2>that train through this new batch.

0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've seen grain can be kind of hard on

0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>dogs sometimes. Yeah, it's not uncommon from what I saw too.

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 1>And then fats too, depending on the kind of fat,

0:09:56.600 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 1>it can lead to pancreatitis pretty quickly in dogs or

0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 1>even gastritis. And you don't want either of those because

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 1>once they start, they can become chronic and that's sad

0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:08.560
<v Speaker 1>for the dog because they have to eat the most

0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 1>boring blane diet imaginable.

0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Should we finish up on what dog poop should look like,

0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.840
<v Speaker 2>let's and now, if your dog is healthy, generally looks

0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:20.319
<v Speaker 2>like because of the lack of calcium.

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:24.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. If you see white poop now and it's speckled white,

0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:27.199
<v Speaker 1>that's probably worms and you want to do something about that.

0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. And if you see the old school white poop,

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 2>that means you know, someone's living seventy style, so it's

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:35.840
<v Speaker 2>got a big stash of I'm not going to name

0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:38.480
<v Speaker 2>check any brands, but you know, what we fed people

0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:40.840
<v Speaker 2>in the eighties are what we fed dogs in the eighties.

0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:44.840
<v Speaker 1>They also raw diets often contain ground up bones, and

0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:47.280
<v Speaker 1>that can cause the old school white dog poop too.

0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So normal dog poop is a tube of poop.

0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:56.200
<v Speaker 2>It should be firm and it should be like a

0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:57.800
<v Speaker 2>light like chocolatey brown.

0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's thanks to our friends at All Dogs Poop,

0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:02.679
<v Speaker 1>the dog waste cleaning service.

0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Which is amazing. What should it not look like?

0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, if it's orange, it means that your dog is

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:13.720
<v Speaker 1>not digesting it slowly enough. It's just kind of passing

0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:18.320
<v Speaker 1>through largely undigested or too undigested, and it'll come out orange,

0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:19.560
<v Speaker 1>and you want to look into that.

0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 2>What if it's yellow.

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:23.600
<v Speaker 1>If it's yellow, that means it probably has some mucus

0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:26.400
<v Speaker 1>in it, which means that your dog is not tolerating

0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 1>its food very well. Usually the reason why is because

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>you just switched their diet radically and all of a sudden.

0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.840
<v Speaker 2>All right, If it's green, you know what that means?

0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:39.600
<v Speaker 2>That means your dog's out there eating grass, probably because

0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 2>it has a little tum tum problem. I think that's

0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:45.640
<v Speaker 2>usually when dogs mouond weeds and grass. But that can

0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:47.439
<v Speaker 2>come out in the poop as grass.

0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:48.880
<v Speaker 1>What about don't.

0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't change much? Gray is no good? That means you're

0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:53.920
<v Speaker 2>you got too much fat in the diet.

0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and again that can lead to pancreatitis.

0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:58.000
<v Speaker 2>And finally, red.

0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:02.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, especially if there's red, that means your dog has

0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>blood in its stool, which means you should pick them

0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:06.800
<v Speaker 1>up and take them to the vet. Right, then that's right.

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:11.079
<v Speaker 1>But also don't discount black tari stool. A lot of

0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:14.319
<v Speaker 1>people don't realize that that means there's blood. They're bleeding

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.960
<v Speaker 1>internally as well. It's just higher up in the digestive tract,

0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 1>so it gets incorporated in the poop earlier and more

0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 1>completely than something like the blood that's red streaky, that

0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:28.760
<v Speaker 1>means it's happening in the lower digestive tract.

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I've been a wash in dog poop lately because

0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 2>very sadly, our fourteen year old Charlie is becoming a

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>little bit incontinent. And she's doing great, but she's got

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:48.199
<v Speaker 2>very stiff little peg leg back legs, and she's starting

0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.240
<v Speaker 2>to just poop when the poop is there, instead of

0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:53.240
<v Speaker 2>saying like I can make it to the door and

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:57.160
<v Speaker 2>asks to be let out. Yeah, it's no fun. But

0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 2>you don't put a dog down because you don't like

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:01.240
<v Speaker 2>cleaning up their poop.

0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:02.600
<v Speaker 1>No, you just yell at them.

0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:06.800
<v Speaker 2>So you just we're cleaning up a lot of dog

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 2>beep lately.

0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Did you say dog beep? Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:15.000
<v Speaker 2>That's all right. It's no fun, but especially when you

0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:16.320
<v Speaker 2>wake up in the middle of the night and it's

0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:20.400
<v Speaker 2>like that's the smell wakes you up. Yeah, that's and

0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:24.600
<v Speaker 2>it's just it's aging is no fun, aging animals, it's

0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 2>no fun. But we're in the middle of it. What

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:28.400
<v Speaker 2>are you gonna do?

0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Just yell at the dog.

0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:31.120
<v Speaker 2>No, stop saying that.

0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 1>We want to thank our friends at IFL Science Mental Flaws,
