When the Main Street Poodle was unveiled in 2013 there was OUTRAGE, SOME LOVE, and quite a bit of CONFUSION surrounding it. "What does it even mean?", "Why not have a local artist design our public art?" and "Why are tax dollars being spent on this monstrosity?" were all fair questions and, as time heals all wounds, over the last couple of years the pooch seems to have partly become an accepted piece of the landscape.
Another part of the landscape, which you may not have noticed, is the giant turd that quietly appeared under him. The concrete, semi-permanent, painted-brown turd, surely put there by some shit-disturbing artist. I dug back in the @MainStPoodle's twitter account and it seems that even he hasn't noticed it yet, but I imagine the next time you walk by you will. Share it on social and let's make #mainstreetturd a thing?
