How about a small davit on the bow, with a harness attached. You strap the poochy into the harness, swing it out over the wwater, and he hangs there till hes done his duty............. swing him back in and there ya go. Doggy does his business, and you get some home made FREE burley.

Sounds like you need to mount a small tree stump out the front or on the back.

I hate dogs - please forgive me for saying that a .22 right between the eyes sorts things out beautifully. That's illegal now (I suppose) but judicious use of a 'priest' might get the same, desired result.

The reason I hate dogs? They bark. Nonstop - at least, around here.

[nickstock]

Very useful and informative answer mullet.

I am sure that you just solved the problem.........

I dislike people because they make stupid remarks , so does that mean I can shoot you, I mean them??????

I would take great joy in returning the favour to yourself

My dog has incontenance, (pisses without control) , when we notice that she has wet the carpet, and you can tell with the smell even when theres 30 + kt winds blowin, we switch on the bilge pump and throw a few buckets of water on it and it's just like she leaked out of the tinny, same when she vomits.
she's old but we still love her
so in a nut shell, the bucket does work

I kinda knew that the course on how to win friends and influence people was a waste of my time.

Sorry but your answer doesn't fit with logic or legality.

Nor does mine I guess but non pet owners get a tad upset by incessant barking and pet owners who respond by saying, 'That's what dogs do'

I'll leave things alone now - don't want to hijack the thread.;D

[tigermullet]

Forgot to add that my feelings about dogs have been altered for the worse after hearing a sad story of financial ruin of an otherwise responsible person who allowed a pathological desire to care for dogs to lead to taking out a mortgage on the family home. There's a life's work down the drain and nothing can be done about it because of a quirk of putting dogs first.

Nothing to do with the the question starting this thread, of course but it might go some way to explaining my reaction.

[finding_time]

I'm sure that BIAS sell a POOP deck!!! Boomboom !!;D

Sorry had to be done if it wasn't me someone else would have.;) Usually is me for some reason though?:-X

[finding_time]

Ok all jokes aside here's the solution!

depends what sort of fishing you do, but if you're in the creeks etc, just pull up on the bank and let him do his business.

bay or offshore, with no bank to pull up on, the bucket of water and pump it a good idea, or you could train him to go on news paper, or in a tray.

[Benno1]

if you dont mind getting up close and personal...a zip lock bag???...stow it...then dont forget to throw it :D

Just a quick thing...


You dont like it when your walk around and there, infront of you is a nice big doggie biscuit on the footpath, why is it ok to put their poop in our waterways or on the bank?

Im all for having your best mate on the boat with you, just dont forget to take home and throw away the poop!

haha i love that one.... the thought/image of it in my mind is classic......

mind u its highly practical and inventive....

mite take a bit to construct though

[jtpython]

I've just bought a Great dane pup 5 months old and i'm definetly not taking him out on the boat ........ there is enuff barkers egg's as big as backpacks in the yard as it is without pooping on the boat .
When the kids don't do what their told they are on Barkers egg duties
JT

[disorderly]

I'd just train him to crap and pee onto newspaper and just take a few papers when you go..allocate a corner and train him to do the business there ..you might have to spend some time adjusting the paper in the right spot till he gets used to it..then just turf it over the side....

If a pee goes astray ..just use the bucket and bilge method as mentioned above...

Scott

Geez JT,a great dane....havent you got enough mouths to feed already

[jtpython]

Needed a gaurd dog ............... Least this one will just have to look the part. May have to trade the boat and get back into shooting pigs again to feed him
