Clumbers Pete? you must have some honking big pheasants down your end . Derek

Yup, actually three (2 boys one girl) with a few more on the way - our bitch (due Saturday) is making a bed under my computer worktop as I type!

Cheers

Mine still produce white poo after we have given them fresh bones to gnaw on.

I asked a mate and he says most likely diet but:

"White dog turds, I think they are due to diet mostly in my dogs, anyway. The breed thing you refer to was probably the fact that Dalmations excrete most of their excess protein as uric acid (insoluble white crystals), rather than Urea, (which is soluble)"

Which might explain the turd turning white with time (and precipitation)

I might just print this out a few times and scatter the printout in random public places.

Do you guys just talk s*it here? It depends what you feed 'em. If you can afford a landrover you can probably afford a better class of dogfood.

...and that fits with my understanding of leather tanning, where white dog s*it was prized. Eeooowwww. ;-)

Global warming is to blame if you ask me.

I'm sure you'd manage to get a multi-million pound grant out of the govt if you proposed a study on the subject - "...with particular reference to Global Warming."

Is he after four grants then?

Heheheh ... ;)

If I'll get me a nice juicy grant I'll try it as many times as possible!!

Was Thunderbird telling me that it hadn't posted, but it obviously had!

I'm sure there used to be a

I'll have you know I've never had my end anywhere near no pheasants.

I'll bet they're out there somewhere, hiding inside odd socks.

Just a quick update - our Clumber family has increased by 7 (4 boys, 3 girls)

You might want to turn the lights off at night, perhaps that's what's attracting them.
