There are many reasons why pet owners might not pick up after their dogs, and it’s often not intentional. Sometimes, they forget to bring bags, run out mid-walk, or just don’t have the time to scoop daily. Plus, picking up dog waste can be a messy and unpleasant chore that most people would rather avoid. That’s where Dookie Dogs comes in! Our pooper scooper services provide a hassle-free solution for homeowners and community managers to keep their spaces clean and fresh.

Yes, dog poop can attract rodents like rats because it's a food source for them. Once they find it, their population can grow quickly, posing health risks like typhus, leptospirosis, rat-bite fever, and salmonellosis. Rodent infestations can also lower property values and cause other issues for residents. Keeping dog poop off your property helps prevent these problems.

The amount of dog poop in your neighborhood depends on the number and size of dogs. On average, each dog produces about ¾ pound of poop daily and around 274 pounds annually. For a neighborhood with 10 dogs, that's about 52 pounds of poop per week and 225 pounds per month. In larger areas with 100 dogs, it can be roughly 75 pounds per day and over 2,250 pounds per month—about the weight of an elephant's worth of poop each month!
