Hi, new here. I have a 5 month old F1 labradoodle. We live in an apartment, upstairs and he prefers to poop on our deck. Problem is, i didnt grab it right away and now its frozen to the deck. ive tried to scrap it off and pull it and cant manage. anyone else experienced this?( i know its odd) help would be appreciated.:)
Cant pour water on it because it would drip on the balcony below me...

Maybe pouring some warm water over it might soften it? Good luck to you! :)

Guess you could just wait for it to warm up a degree or two. You shouldn't have to worry about a smell in the meantime since it's frozen.

You might try filling a ziploc baggy up with warm water and placing it over the poo. This way you can avoid a mess from just pouring water over it. Good Luck

Umm...not to sound like a smarta**, but doesn't the balcony below you get wet when it rains? Or when the dog pees?
Pour hot water on it, it's not going to kill them to have water on their outside deck. I mean, how do you clean your deck otherwise?

There may not be cracks/spaces in the decks? ;)
I would suggest to dribble hot water over it or if you have any ice-salt, try that.

If there were no cracks or spaces, then it wouldn't matter if you used water ;)
