Default Dog feces in compost?

Brigitte J. said:

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is dog poop OK in the compost bin?


If it's your own dog who licks you, sits on you, and basically 'shares' himself
and whatever he may have inside him with you, and your compost is made
in hot batches it would probably be OK. But it's not something anyone would
encourage. (After all, I'm sure the dog has been wormed at intervals, right??)

Poop from strange dogs (or other carnivores) would definitely be RIGHT OUT!
