Having watched my dog spin around for minutes before abandoning the moment, what can I do to encourage the flow state? I'm thinking of maybe bringing a tibetan singing bowl on our walks.

Have you tried taking your dog to someone else’s property? Works wonders around here it would seem.

My dog has a half-mile radius around the house in which he will not poop. I always have a baggie.

A minimum of two baggies is necessary for my dog. She follows a divide and conquer approach when tackling her business.

Wouldn't want to lead a predator to his den. You've got keep that stuff far from home so the concentration and smell doesn't attract unwanted interest.

Even away from the house, he'll go off trail to poop. He's so considerate. I appreciate him.

My dog will walk for hundreds of feet in the "poop walk" (head down, slow pace) before poop actually starts... If it ever does.

I joked to someone that we could be in a town that's a few miles away (in the general direction we were going) before he actually decides to poop.

Try centrifugal force. A longer leash will increase bowel pressure.

And why does it always have to be in the yard of the neighbor who really manicures his lawn. The one place most likely to get me yelled at.

I get it. I have to do the same thing at a crowded bathroom urinal.

Opisek@piefed.blahaj.zone · 6 pts · 34d (1 reply)

You know you can go to the urinal next to it instead of squeezing in with someone else right?

What about when it's cold though? You can't tell me you've never piss cuddled a homie for warmth

I mean… don’t you?

If the dog adds the Power gem to their flow state they could eliminate half their bowels in an instant

For a dog to enter a flow state, it must first be liquidated

The only time modern human is truly in touch with reality is when they are shitting their guts out and forgot the phone.

Conceptually I kinda miss the days when my family members and I had in-progress books spread around the house stacked on the backs of toilets, but retrospectively, in practice that was kinda gross.
