There ya go.

Dog crap pressed into the non skid.

Nothing like slipping on a dog turd, cept kat **** in the cushions or fleas.

Our dog, a standard poodle named Chopper, has been sailing with us since
puppyhood. He has an exceptionally strong bladder and incentive to hold on
what he's got (which comes from decent training). We dinghy him
in...sometimes we drive the boat up to the docks, I leap off with the dog,
mr. sails takes a turn around the mooring field, and voila! we're back and
on board....Choppie jumps from the back of the transom into the dinghy and
jumps off the dock into the dinghy on command. Some people don't want to do
all the dinghying stuff, so they either teach the dog to go down the
scuppers or put astro-turf on the bow, which to me, is very gross and
disgusting. Little dogs can be trained to use litter boxes just like
cats...at least then it's contained somewhere and not out in the open and
offensive.

Doing that increases the risk of bladder cancer, colon cancer or a prolapsed
colon. It's also cruel.
If the dog has to go, let it go. You can bag it up with a baggie or just
toss it into the head. If you are really anal about it, put diapers on the
dog.

So do you feed you dog only when ashore?

Do you go only on short excursions?

Holding a dump can lead to an impacted stool. Give the animal plenty of
water and let it go when it has to. You can control where, but not when. No
dog has a twelve or six hour bowel cycle.

Well then Ms Smartypants, what is the bowel cycle of a canine?

Does it depend on the dog's activity level? Diet?

Tell us please!
