Why does dog poo turn white?

Answer #1

Perfect question to see at the top of the page when I'm eating breakfast, lol.
What's happening here is a combination of two things:
The feces is drying out. You know how your skin turns white when it's too dry? Same concept. And...
Bacteria in the feces eat the *good* parts (yeck) and leave the parts they can't digest, like calcium from bones and other high calcium foods that dogs tend to get into.
