Fertilizer or Poop?

I bought some Milorganite on the recommendation of my neighbor. He said it has human poop in it and it smells bad, but it sure make his flowers bloom. So, I figured I’d give it a try – what the heck – I’d like to see some blooms on my bottlebrush tree.

Got the fertilizer and poured it in the spreader for hubby to spread around – he can’t do any heavy lifting, so that’s on me. He got that spread out, and was adding more. By now the bag was light enough for him to lift.

Ca-lump, ca-lump! Here comes the dog (he’s a German Shepherd Dog). Sticks his nose smack into the spreader and starts licking. WTF… Ovah. Hubby starts yelling at him to get the heck out of there. I turned around to see what the commotion was and asked him what he was hollering at. He said the dog was trying to eat the fertilizer! Well, it does smell like shit…

I called him inside to get him away from it. We ran the sprinklers, then let him outside again. The dog was ultra confused. He could smell this shit everywhere. But where was it coming from? He stood there with this major confused look on his face for about five minutes before he decided to go over and sniff behind the shed. Hmmmm… no shit here.

A while later we let him out again. He did the same thing. Stood there all confused. WTF. And that was exactly the expression on his face. WTF… Ovah.
