Walking in poop

My Labradoodle (MAXX) walks in his own poop. Any ideas on how to stop this?

WELCOME TO THE FORUM!

I have to start this off on a funny note!

When we were on vacation a year ago or so, my husband bought a T-shirt that says....
My Indian name is
WALKS WITH POOP!

I think I took a picture of the shirt for the forum and everyone cracked up.
So, he joined the forum as "walkswithpoop"!

Okay, on a more serious note.
WHEN does your doodle walk in it?
Right AFTER he poooo's or........after awhile?
Because my way is to pick Bogart's poop up right after he poo's so there's none in the way for later running around or playing.
Any poo left around is bound to be stepped in.

I can't think of what to say if he/she walks in it right after pooing, other then to have a long clothesline on the doodle and when they poo........say NO......and tug them away if they start to walk in it, ya know?

we have quite a large area in our backyard for the guys to poop..and yet to have them step in it..myself though, is another story..

of all the reading about dogs..ive yet to see any articles about teaching our dogs not to step into poop..

MAX had an accident recently by the front door very early one morning
anyway....he did stop in it BY ACCIDENT when trying to take him and Peanut out for a morning walk ....it was hard to avoid the land mine like areas he left for me to clean up after I had my morning coffee.

seriously, when a dog matures if they walk in it , its by accident

NOW if it's in your yard then POOP DUTY may be in order as a dog will try to further their perimeter of pooping if it isn't picked up

THIS is only my opinion as it's happened only a few times here
and i keep an old pot , fill it with warm soapy water and put that dang paw in it hahhhahaaaa OH i then wash my floors quickly with natures miracle OR vinegar in warm water

PS Maybe you want you dog to be with linda's WALKSWITHPOOP hubby?
