        Thx for the lessons on how to get it out, W.D, and thx for letting me know the legend that says it'll lead to good luck. I'm tired of my many nice shoes having poop down deep in the treads. I bought a steel-like stiff wire brush for that purpose. Now, what kind of cleaning agent should I use ? .....soap or laundry detergent, or scouring powder, or "Goo Gone" ?

        The Parisians must be the luckiest people in the world if the amount of dog faeces is a measure of good fortune. In France if you see anyone cleaning up after their dog you can be sure they are not French.

          1) Wrap shoes in newspaper.


          2)place wrapped shoes in plastic shopping bag & tie the top securely.


          3)Drop entire parcel in trash can & wait for pickup day.


          4)Buy new shoes.

            LOL. Tom, it would never occur to me to do that b/c I was raised by my parents who went thru the depression and so my mom was a penny pincer and reused everything.
            There are dog walking neighbors who walk their dogs at night, so no one can see them doing their dirty deed. And they don't pick up after their dog.

              I usually use a stick and some leaves to get most of it off.  Then I spray it with a hose.  Then I'll put some Dawn dishwashing det and water in the bottom of a bucket and place the shoes in it.  Then I spray again with a hose.  Mind you, these are not fancy shoes- sneakers or fake crocks etc...and if it brought good luck then I was in for really terrible luck-LOL

                I'll try your methods, doo, and the others. First, I'll put on plastic gloves and a face mask. Maybe I should wear a surgical gown too.

                  Always push the brush away from your body.  If you pull it toward you, the bristles will fling dung ...and you will not be pleased.
