Could dog owners be responsible for the country's obesity problem?

Did you know that over 60% of adults in Britain are either overweight or obese?!
Here is a possible reason for this: dog poo!
I was enthusiastically on my way to the gym when I trod on something slippery and smelly on the steps. I couldn't go to the gym stinking like that so had to go back home to clean my trainers and I missed my gym work out. Feeling depressed about missing my gym workout I then ate an ice cream to comfort myself =) I hate dog poo and blame it for obesity.

That's just such an adorable excuse. But at least the dog owner was out getting their exercise. (smirk) I suppose it could be the same for those in the USA.

Funny thing, I just got back in from walking mine but they don't go on the walk.

Thanks for the vote. I do pick up after them if they do the doo, while on their walks. Report Abuse

no, but I think you might buy some extra sneakers for times like these. lol
