Poop Nirvana...or "does anyone here own a Jack Russell Terrier?"

[Thtwudbeme]

Why does Scout take so long to poop on her walks? Honestly, she "holds" it until we seem to get to the EXACT right spot, and that seems to mean a fairly long walk, and lots of nose to the ground action.

Is this a "Terrier" thing?

1. do you just do your business anywhere?

no? well neither does Scout :D

4. She is in the middle of the bed right now, in the mound she built up of

the comforter....looking at me like "ummmmm HELLO!!!! Shouldn't you be doing something for me???"

;)

She's a seriously cute dog-

7. I love Jack Russells

I love their engergy, their attitude, how animated their facial extressions can be :thumbsup:

She was found wandering down the highway in NC; I think she is perfect:

2. My dog has a bunch of favorite spots.

Some days we hit the right one right away. Other days we have to make our rounds a few times. She's no terrier, either. :D

5. Aha!

So other dogs have the "Poop Nirvana" spots too, eh?

3. Don't you sometimes read in the John....

I mean, come on, maybe the poor thing is just catching up on the comings and goings on in the dog world....

6. Well, that's probably true

we are condo dwellers...and the other dogs in the neighborhood DO get walked on the same route-

9. She's checking her pee-mail. n/t

11. I think sometimes it is a human thing too, sometimes.

I sometimes find myself walking around in circles, first. Could just be that I'm crazy though. I do have a certain spot, I was taught at a young age to always go there. Oh, I'm gross, I'll stop now.

12. Could be a terrier thing

My Miniature Schnauzer walks and sniffs forever until he finds the right spot. It pisses me off in the morning when I am late for work and waiting for him to do his business.
