Default Re: what to do with DOG CRAP?!?!

It's a better plan than in the composter or your own garden depending if you feed your dog any kind of meat. I have a friend who puts it on his garden but when it rains it stinks like dog poop. My garden gets cow poop so it smells like cow poop. I guess it depends on the flavour you prefer. He gave me zucchini after he told me about the dog poop in the garden i couldn't bring myself to eat them because his dogs are husky and I know they eat little more than raw fish and meat.

I spoke with someone some months ago that lives in an apartment and invested in a worm farm suggesting it worked great with no smell and she has compost for the plants on her balcony from her food waste.

lately i've been digging holes about two feet deep with my post hole digger and shoveling it in there. i keep it covered with a big rock and when the hole is about full, i fill in the last two or three inches with dirt.

good idea or bad idea?
any suggestions?
thanks
