How​ ​to​ ​Clean​ ​Up​ ​Dog​ ​Poop Dog​ ​poop​ ​might​ ​not​ ​be​ ​the​ ​most​ ​glamorous​ ​of​ ​topics,​ ​but​ ​believe​ ​it​ ​not,​ ​there’s​ ​actually​ ​quite​ ​a lot​ ​that​ ​pet​ ​parents​ ​should​ ​be​ ​aware​ ​of​ ​when​ ​it​ ​comes​ ​to​ ​this,​ ​let’s​ ​say​ ​messy,​ ​topic.​ ​“There​ ​are a​ ​list​ ​of​ ​diseases​ ​that​ ​can​ ​be​ ​transmitted​ ​from​ ​dogs​ ​to​ ​humans​ ​via​ ​the​ ​fecal/oral​ ​route,”​ ​says​ ​Dr. Oscar​ ​Chavez,​ ​DVM.​ ​“For​ ​this​ ​reason,​ ​some​ ​care​ ​should​ ​be​ ​taken​ ​in​ ​the​ ​handling,​ ​or​ ​picking​ ​up, of​ ​dog​ ​feces.”

Diseases​ ​aside,​ ​as​ ​a​ ​pet​ ​owner​ ​you’re​ ​probably​ ​also​ ​interested​ ​in​ ​learning​ ​how​ ​to​ ​get​ ​those pesky​ ​accident​ ​marks​ ​out​ ​of​ ​your​ ​carpet​ ​or​ ​other​ ​fabrics,​ ​as​ ​well.​ ​Fear​ ​not—we’ve​ ​got​ ​the​ ​full poop​ ​scoop​ ​right​ ​here.

Why​ ​Dog​ ​Poop​ ​Can​ ​Be​ ​Dangerous As​ ​Dr.​ ​Chavez​ ​mentioned,​ ​there​ ​are​ ​some​ ​inherent​ ​dangers​ ​when​ ​it​ ​comes​ ​to​ ​handling​ ​dog poop,​ ​so​ ​it’s​ ​important​ ​to​ ​always​ ​be​ ​vigilant​ ​and​ ​careful​ ​when​ ​doing​ ​so.​ ​“Diseases​ ​that​ ​are transmitted​ ​from​ ​animals​ ​to​ ​humans​ ​are​ ​called​ ​zoonotic​ ​diseases,”​ ​he​ ​said.​ ​“Zoonotic​ ​diseases that​ ​we​ ​can​ ​get​ ​from​ ​contaminated​ ​dog​ ​feces​ ​include​ S ​ almonella,​ ​Campylobacter​,​ ​Giardia, roundworms​ ​and​ ​potentially​ ​hookworms​.”

Complicating​ ​matters​ ​is​ ​the​ ​fact​ ​that​ ​sometimes​ ​our​ ​pets​ ​can​ ​be​ ​carrying​ ​these​ ​diseases​ ​—​ ​like Salmonella​ ​—​ ​without​ ​actually​ ​becoming​ ​ill​ ​themselves,​ ​so​ ​it’s​ ​important​ ​to​ ​treat​ ​every​ ​one​ ​of your​ ​dog’s​ ​bowel​ ​movements​ ​as​ ​carefully​ ​as​ ​possible.

How​ ​to​ ​Properly​ ​Clean​ ​Dog​ ​Poop How​ ​you​ ​go​ ​about​ ​cleaning​ ​up​ ​your​ ​dog’s​ ​poop​ ​will​ ​depend​ ​on​ ​where​ ​the​ ​accident​ ​actually occurs.​ ​In​ ​general​ ​though,​ ​the​ ​following​ ​are​ ​some​ ​expert-approved​ ​ways​ ​to​ ​scoop​ ​the​ ​poop​ ​that will​ ​keep​ ​you​ ​safe​ ​and​ ​help​ ​ensure​ ​that​ ​all​ ​fecal​ ​matter​ ​is​ ​properly​ ​disposed​ ​of.

If​ ​dog​ ​poop​ ​happens​ ​outdoors​:​ ​An​ ​outdoor​ ​cleanup​ ​is​ ​the​ ​best-case​ ​scenario​ ​for​ ​all involved,​ ​but​ ​that​ ​still​ ​means​ ​you​ ​should​ ​be​ ​careful​ ​removing​ ​the​ ​feces.​ ​If​ ​it’s​ ​possible,​ ​Dr. Chavez​ ​suggests​ ​trying​ ​to​ ​have​ ​your​ ​dog​ ​poop​ ​on​ ​sand​ ​or​ ​grass,​ ​since​ ​this​ ​is​ ​the​ ​easiest​ ​to clean​ ​and​ ​the​ ​threat​ ​of​ ​transmitted​ ​disease​ ​is​ ​lessened.​ ​“If​ ​on​ ​sand​ ​or​ ​grass,​ ​use​ ​a​ ​thick​ ​plastic bag​ ​to​ ​cover​ ​the​ ​feces​ ​and​ ​entrap​ ​it,​ ​then​ ​turn​ ​the​ ​bag​ ​inside​ ​out​ ​immediately,​ ​trapping​ ​the​ ​feces in​ ​the​ ​bag,”​ ​he​ ​said.​ ​“Tie​ ​the​ ​open​ ​end​ ​of​ ​the​ ​bag​ ​together​ ​and​ ​discard​ ​into​ ​a​ ​wastebasket​ ​as soon​ ​as​ ​possible.​ ​Some​ ​bags​ ​even​ ​have​ ​additional​ ​features​ ​that​ ​provide​ ​protection​ ​like​ ​double

https://sites.google.com/site/petwasteremovalmichigan/ layers​ ​on​ ​the​ ​end​ ​in​ ​contact​ ​with​ ​the​ ​feces,​ ​and​ ​draw​ ​strings.”​ ​Whatever​ ​bag​ ​you​ ​use,​ ​be​ ​certain it’s​ ​new,​ ​and​ ​doesn’t​ ​have​ ​any​ ​holes​ ​or​ ​punctures. Of​ ​course​ ​sand​ ​or​ ​grass​ ​isn’t​ ​always​ ​readily​ ​available​ ​for​ ​pooping​ ​purposes,​ ​so​ ​if​ ​your​ ​pup​ ​ends up​ ​on​ ​another​ ​type​ ​of​ ​surface​ ​(gravel​ ​or​ ​asphalt,​ ​for​ ​example),​ ​and​ ​it’s​ ​an​ ​area​ ​frequented​ ​by people​ ​(especially​ ​children),​ ​remove​ ​the​ ​poop​ ​in​ ​the​ ​same​ ​manner​ ​as​ ​above​ ​and​ ​consider washing​ ​down​ ​the​ ​surface​ ​with​ ​water​ ​and​ ​diluted​ ​bleach,​ ​if​ ​possible,​ ​to​ ​kill​ ​any​ ​bacteria​ ​or protozoa​,​ ​and​ ​then​ ​scrubbing​ ​the​ ​area​ ​with​ ​a​ ​metal​ ​brush.​ ​If​ ​it’s​ ​in​ ​an​ ​obscure​ ​area,​ ​however​ ​— like​ ​the​ ​middle​ ​of​ ​a​ ​busy​ ​street​ ​—​ ​remove​ ​the​ ​dog​ ​poop,​ ​but​ ​it’s​ ​probably​ ​not​ ​necessary​ ​to​ ​scrub with​ ​bleach,​ ​as​ ​the​ ​bacteria​ ​will​ ​eventually​ ​die​ ​on​ ​its​ ​own​ ​without​ ​the​ ​potential​ ​hazard​ ​of​ ​being touched​ ​by​ ​people.

If​ ​dog​ ​poop​ ​happens​ ​indoors​:​ ​Cleaning​ ​dog​ ​poop​ ​on​ ​your​ ​new​ ​carpet​ ​or​ ​your grandmother’s​ ​old​ ​reclining​ ​chair​ ​comes​ ​with​ ​its​ ​own​ ​set​ ​of​ ​issues,​ ​but​ ​all​ ​is​ ​not​ ​lost.​ ​If​ ​it’s diarrhea​ ​you’re​ ​dealing​ ​with,​ ​Bill​ ​Masters,​ ​owner​ ​of​ D ​ iamond​ ​Carpet​ ​Care​,​ ​suggests​ ​scraping​ ​up as​ ​much​ ​of​ ​the​ ​feces​ ​as​ ​you​ ​can,​ ​and​ ​then​ ​allowing​ ​it​ ​to​ ​dry​ ​out​ ​overnight.​ ​“The​ ​next​ ​day,​ ​scrape up​ ​again,”​ ​he​ ​says​ ​Then​ ​use​ ​a​ ​solution​ ​of​ ​2-3​ ​drops​ ​of​ ​Dawn​ ​dish​ ​soap,​ ​3​ ​oz.​ ​of​ ​white​ ​vinegar and​ ​16​ ​oz.​ ​water.​ ​Pour​ ​the​ ​solution​ ​directly​ ​onto​ ​the​ ​stain​ ​and​ ​allow​ ​it​ ​to​ ​sit​ ​for​ ​three​ ​minutes before​ ​laying​ ​a​ ​folded​ ​towel​ ​on​ ​top​ ​and​ ​blotting​ ​as​ ​needed.”​ ​You​ ​might​ ​need​ ​to​ ​repeat​ ​the solution​ ​another​ ​time​ ​to​ ​ensure​ ​that​ ​the​ ​spot​ ​is​ ​lifted,​ ​and​ ​then​ ​use​ ​a​ ​dry​ ​towel​ ​to​ ​blog​ ​the​ ​area dry. Solid​ ​poop​ ​will​ ​of​ ​course​ ​be​ ​easier​ ​to​ ​remove​ ​than​ ​diarrhea,​ ​but​ ​it​ ​still​ ​might​ ​require​ ​some​ ​extra elbow​ ​grease​ ​on​ ​your​ ​part.​ ​For​ ​solid​ ​messes,​ ​Mike​ ​Sheridan,​ ​senior​ ​technician​ ​with​ R ​ andy’s Carpet​ ​Care​,​ ​suggests​ ​using​ ​a​ ​solution​ ​of​ ​white​ ​vinegar​ ​and​ ​water​ ​mixed​ ​50/50,​ ​after​ ​you​ ​clean the​ ​area,​ ​to​ ​neutralize​ ​the​ ​PH​ ​so​ ​the​ ​stain​ ​doesn’t​ ​brown​ ​as​ ​it​ ​dries.​ ​(Another​ ​bonus​ ​to​ ​vinegar? It​ ​kills​ ​germs!)​ ​Finally,​ ​when​ ​the​ ​mess​ ​is​ ​clean,​ ​put​ ​a​ ​spray​ ​nozzle​ ​on​ ​your​ ​brown​ ​hydrogen

https://sites.google.com/site/petwasteremovalmichigan/ peroxide​ ​bottle​ ​and​ ​give​ ​the​ ​area​ ​a​ ​good​ ​misting,​ ​but​ ​don’t​ ​saturate​ ​it​ ​(which​ ​could​ ​leave​ ​a stain).​ ​“Peroxide​ ​is​ ​great​ ​for​ ​organic​ ​stain​ ​removal,​ ​and​ ​it​ ​also​ ​helps​ ​prevent​ ​browning,” Sheridan​ ​added.

If​ ​dog​ ​poop​ ​lingers​ ​on​ ​your​ ​pet:​​ ​If​ ​you​ ​find​ ​that​ ​your​ ​dog’s​ ​poop​ ​has​ ​had​ ​some​ ​lasting effects​ ​on​ ​his​ ​person,​ ​the​ ​best​ ​thing​ ​to​ ​do​ ​is​ ​give​ ​him​ ​a​ ​bath​ ​with​ ​warm​ ​water​ ​and​ ​dog​ ​shampoo. “If​ ​you​ ​don’t​ ​have​ ​dog​ ​shampoo,​ ​a​ ​mild​ ​human​ ​shampoo​ ​like​ ​Johnson​ ​&​ ​Johnson​ ​Baby Shampoo​ ​will​ ​work,”​ ​says​ ​Dr.​ ​Chavez.​ ​“Most​ ​bacteria​ ​area​ ​killed​ ​by​ ​soap​ ​and​ ​warm​ ​water.”​ ​Of course​ ​wearing​ ​gloves​ ​—​ ​like​ ​dishwashing​ ​gloves,​ ​for​ ​example​ ​—​ ​while​ ​doing​ ​so​ ​is​ ​never​ ​a​ ​bad additional​ ​precaution. At​ ​the​ ​end​ ​of​ ​the​ ​day,​ ​if​ ​your​ ​dog​ ​is​ ​healthy,​ ​the​ ​threat​ ​of​ ​your​ ​dog’s​ ​poop​ ​harming​ ​yourself​ ​or others​ ​is​ ​greatly​ ​minimized.​ ​“Healthy,​ ​clean​ ​dogs​ ​make​ ​healthy,​ ​formed​ ​stools,​ ​which​ ​are​ ​safer and​ ​easier​ ​to​ ​clean​ ​up,”​ ​says​ ​Dr.​ ​Chavez.​ ​“The​ ​best​ ​way​ ​to​ ​reduce​ ​any​ ​risk​ ​of​ ​cleaning​ ​up​ ​your dog’s​ ​poop​ ​is​ ​to​ ​feed​ ​him​ ​a​ ​high​ ​quality​ ​diet​ ​that​ ​isn’t​ ​contaminated​ ​in​ ​the​ ​first​ ​place,​ ​to​ ​keep your​ ​dog​ ​in​ ​good​ ​health​ ​and​ ​monitor​ ​his​ ​fecal​ ​consistency.”
