Discovery about dogs' toilet habits

Now I doubt many people will read the article, but I thought you might get a giggle out of the same thing I did - that these scientists spent two years watching dogs take dumps!   

I've read it and it's nonsense or my dogs have no poosense...
They say cows and sheep also graze along magnetic lines.
If you have time and money you can prove anything.

I love that caption under the graph picture   

I need to get the compass out and pay more attention to the dogs pooping   

I don't place too much faith in their findings, as they failed to take into account the fact that dogs often choose the location of their 'doings' by scent. If there was a particularly nice scent there, of course the dogs would face a certain way!

But I just find the whole idea hilarious! What a job, eh?

What a load of excreta    Well at least it kept these scientists from doing worse things.

Karma! The dogs get their revenge!
