I would love to know who got the job of counting and weighing the dog turds. Suddenly your tax money is going to pay for a small army of turd counters and turd weighers. I would also love to know how the Ghentians get their dogs to squat in just the right place. When I last had dogs for pets, I had basset hounds. Aside from the olfactory and vision components, the only functioning part of a basset's brain is the hypothalamus, which commands the dog to eat and sleep.
Bassets follow no human commands.
If I had basset hounds in Ghent, I'd be dressing 'em up in Depends. I love dogs, I really do. But I decided some years back that life is just too short to pick up dog turds. So these days, I keep fish for pets. They clean up their own byproducts, if you know what I mean.
