>The only answer is to get a Ferret friendly dog. I used to go yuk...get >away from that Dimarco (Min Poodle)....but now I go, "here Dimarco, please >clean this up" but I rarely find poop on the floor before he does.... Certainly this is not the only answer, and definately not a very good answer IMHO. Aside from the fact that this seems like a disgusting practice (but hey, I'm not a dog, so what do I know), I would tend to think that there would be a health risk here (any of the vets care to comment?). Besides, Ferret "misses" are hardly much of a chore to clean up. If anyone of you have had a cat with hairballs, I think you know what I'm saying. To me this just sounds like a lazy way of handling the problem, and I would not encourage anyone to follow this example. Mike/Mia [Posted in FML issue 1918]
