Where Do Dogs Poop on a Cruise Ship?

By Robert Palmer

Dogs are welcome on many cruise ships, but there is one important question that needs to be answered – Where do dogs poop on a cruise ship?

The answer to this question is that it depends on the individual cruise line. Some cruise lines provide designated areas for dogs to relieve themselves, while others require passengers to provide their own “poop bags” and dispose of them in the appropriate waste receptacles.

If your cruise line provides specific “doggy relief” areas, they will likely be marked clearly by signage. These areas are typically located away from passenger areas and may include grassy patches, a special deck area, or even an outdoor/indoor area. Using these designated areas will ensure that your pet’s waste is disposed of properly and safely.

If your cruise line does not provide specific “doggy relief” areas, you should bring along enough plastic bags to dispose of your pet’s waste. When you find a suitable area for your pet to relieve themselves, you can bag the waste and dispose of it in one of the provided bins or trash cans. If necessary, you can also ask a member of the crew where the designated bins are located.

Conclusion:

Ultimately, it is important to always be mindful of where your dog is relieving themselves when aboard a cruise ship. Whether there are designated “doggy relief” areas or not, make sure that you clean up after your pet and dispose of any waste properly in order to keep the ship clean and safe for everyone onboard.
