Today, I had to hunt down and collect a stray dog's feces for my parasitology class. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Treasure hunt
Today, I caught my dog attempting to shit on the carpet. When I saw him, I screamed. Startled, he ran around the house, continuing to take his shit. Now, I don't have to clean up a nice pile, I get to go on a scavenger hunt and find all of the scattered turds. FML

Oh shit
Today, as I was getting ready to go to class, I accidentally stepped in dog poop. I was in a hurry, so I scraped it off as best as I could. When I go to class, I noticed it smelled. The girl behind me noticed and said, "Mmmmm, smells like food in here." FML

Handful
Today, I was walking my dogs when I noticed one of them had found something, and was eating it. After my command to "drop it" went unheeded, I took it upon myself to scoop it out of her mouth with my finger. After getting it all over my hand, I realized it was a piece of another dog's poop. FML

Squishy or non-squishy?
Today, I went to the bathroom. On my way back, I found a small piece of trash in the hallway so I picked it up. It was cat poop. FML

Today, I was walking dogs for the animal hospital I work for. I accidentally dropped the leash, and in my haste to retrieve it, I frantically grabbed the ground. I got the leash, and a handful of fresh dog poo emitted from the dog I was walking. FML

Today, as I was teaching my 10th grade biology honors class, a student came in with a dead frog and asked if we could dissect it. He tried to toss it to me and missed, so it landed in a girl's lap. She threw up all over me. FML

Today, I stepped in dog shit, barefoot, in my own bathroom. The dog had been outside for two hours earlier, and I'd watched him take a dump. Apparently he was saving some for when he got back in the house. FML

Today, I was walking my dog when, as usual, he did his business in the grass and stepped off to the side. I squatted and reached for the bag when my dog spotted another canine. He lunged forward in excitement and I landed face forward in the feces. FML

That doesn't sound fun no matter how you try to make it sound.

You should have used your own.

Every dog and outdoors cat that comes in for it's yearly exam will require a fecal. You deserve this. How do you think we figure out what's wrong with your pet?

Well then... What kind of parasites did you find in it?

Probably not any that you would want to put in your mouth!

There's quite a few that OP could possibly find.

I have to do the same thing for parasitology, except I have to wait around for my cats to get a fresh sample.

"Come here fluffy... just shit in this container for my class!" I'm sorry the visual in my mind just made me laugh.

OP doesn't necessarily have to be a vet in training, it's just trickier to collect fecal samples with parasites from people. Anyway, just be glad you didn't have to collect the sample from the source
