thanks i usually keep her in a chicken wire fenced off area because the neighbors dog has pooped in our yard, the other night while we were out with Sadie in her little pen area as a matter of fact the neighbor just watched her dog come over and poop in our yard, she then came back with a sack to pick it up and said she didn't find anything (it was dark out) and my hubbie had to pick up what she didn't find the next day...i keep Sadie away from that whole area now and only walk her close to her own pen and keep her in her pen to go potty and play.
i'm careful about her as much as possible.
