Slight change of topic - we have a blind woman at work who has a seeing eye dog. At breaks, she takes him outside to relieve himself and she has to pooper scoop! She seems to manage to get it in the bag!
I don’t flush the flushable wipes, being cursed as I am with unreliable old-house plumbing. We line the bathroom trash can with grocery bags, and empty daily. Problem solved!
I’ve often wished for a bidet, especially during the days of Aunt Flo’s visit. Then I actually used one. Brrrrr! Somehow I imagined warm soothing water.
Whoa, why did this thread rise from the crypt?
MelCthfirst - I am not entirely sure, but I believe the dogs might be trained to “point out” where they did their business - by standing above it or something, so that the owner can simply locate the poop based on the location of the dog. These animals are trained to do so much…it shouldn’t be hard to add that to their repetoire!
ok…I’m confused…who looks at the tp after you wipe? Generally, I’m pretty aware of when I’m “clean.” No need to examine the evidence.
Am I alone here?
I might suggest going by the viscosity of your rear end. To wit, if you wipe, and there’s no resistance… well then, your ass is needs properly wiped. If there’s some friction, perhaps your ass has been cleaned.
Like Stoid, I want to know how you’re supposed to dry yourself after using a bidet. I encountered toilets in Thailand (the squat variety, natch) that had a hand-held sprayer thing for washing yourself off, but had no TP and no towels. Hell, even nylon shorts don’t dry fast enough to make it comfortable to pull your undies back up over a wet butt!
Charmin w/ Aloe, best damned t-paper on the market. Try a roll and you’ll see what I mean. Warning: you can never go back to regular paper again, it’s very much like baby wipes and bio-degradable.
epraz you got that right!
I believe it was due to a link in this thread.
What I want to know is, how does the water properly clean all of the uh… poop away? Is the stream hard enough that it can dislodge every bit of poop? I wouldn’t want to be walking around all day with bits of poop stuck to my bum. squirms in chair I’d STILL need to wipe, even if I have been hosed down thoroughly.
Inform me, please.
Ah. I had just guessed it was a second anniversary thing.
