I dont think there are many scenarios where a dog frequently shits inside a human dwelling. It is a valid point though, perhaps they tested that too (dogshit smells in an enclosed space, gotta envy those researchers)

Presumably, they’d do the same thing at night.

But in that case, we’d need to be sure that they aren’t using the North Star.
