    I would have thought that it would have been the pitbull that replaced the retriever. That’s all you see anymore!

    Now, if they could teach the dogs to pick up the bottles, that would be something!

    Frenchies are really cute and incredibly funny. But I prefer Bostons myself.

    My oldest had to give a dog poo sample to the HOA at his condo. Just avoid possible accidents, he collect a poo sample from a park across town and used that for the HOA sample.

    I’ve seen pictures of those machines. Some of the dogs have learned, on their own, to pick up and deposit the bottles. It’s quite a system.

    That’s not good, french bulldogs are not a breed that should be this popular… on the opposite, they should stop breeding those dogs.

    That’s a great idea, no doubt in Turkey, to pick up plastic bottles, and feed the roving dogs. But, here in the US, our dogs tend not to be roving, but housed and/or fenced. Now, if this machine could be used with cats, it might work here. But, can a cat be trained to pick up a plastic bottle even for treats? I doubt it.

    Wonder how long a French Bulldog will reign as “#1”…. My bet is for a Labrador come-back…

    Turkish vending machine is ingenious! Modify it to dispense donuts and I will go around picking up plastic bottles!

    When I was a kid back in the 60’s, people walked their dogs (at least in my neighborhood) without picking up poop. It just wasn’t done – or thought about. I can see why it later became a thing to do. And now, I can’t imagine walking my dogs without clean up.

    All dog breeding should stop until the mutts have homes and all the shelters are empty.

    So now they enlist CSI to ID the po​opetrator. Cutting edge, high tech never ceases to amaze me!

    I’m trying, but failing, to picture any race where a French bulldog overtakes a Lab.

    Could’ve lived w/o the “sample”; I don’t remember whether this is the first time we’ve seen one in this strip (or others)…

    From what I have seen of most dogs, it would fail in the US. Those water/pop bottles would be chewed up so badly, those machines probably wouldn’t be able to process them. I’ve seen some dogs ignore a squirrel just to chew up one of those bottles.
