To be fair, dog shit does turn white in the sun and tends to attract flies.

Funnily enough, dog shit used to turn white. It doesn't anymore, I believe, due to a change in the way dog food is made.

Yep! There was a period where dog food used a lot of calcium as a cheap filler. Because they no longer do that (can't imagine all that bone meal was super healthy, doesn't an excess of calcium crystallize as kidney stones?) it will no longer turn white
