The deposits are all around four inches in height and formed in a circular pattern with a base diameter of approximately six inches. The consistency is neither wet nor dry but the amazing points are the spacing and the colour. It would seem to be a most incontinent dog that lays a turd at one hundred yard intervals over a distance of almost three quarters of a mile.
