According to the original Facebook post, the dog's owner is an Israeli man who needed to give his dog some air but didn't want to risk infection. That's where the trusty drone comes in. It's still unknown whether the drone brought doggy bags with it, but we'll let it pass this time.
In the short video, the dog's leash can be seen tied to the drone and the two can be seen walking down the streets. The fluffy white dog didn’t seem to mind the drone a bit and strut happily in the city. The question is, however, who’s going to pick up after the dog? Well, perhaps the person owns an autonomous vision-enabled robotic poop scooper or some other remote picker-upper.
Who would pick up the poop?
On one hand, where people were completely surprised after seeing the video, while on the other hand, the users questioned the person about the circumstances if the dog tried to flee away. "Lovely dog, but wait until the dog sees a ball or a cat, and runs for it. I am sorry to say that the drone will be smashed into pieces," a user wrote. "Or worse if the drone should be programmed wrong and goes higher Man facepalming," another user wrote. "How do you scoop up the poop," chimed another

It's a three drone job. One to walk, one to scoop, and one to manage the walker and the scooper.
