Install buckets on the back of the horses to collect the do-do .  I think the Horse-drawn carriage idea is a good one..

When the old met the new... deep in Texas

Do-do cleaners! St. Augustine seems to have no problem with this...  

BTW, did you know that "DO-DO" is the reason for cable car and streetcar development in America?

True!

In large systems such as San Francisco and New York, the street railways might have stabled 1,000 or more horses or mules. Each animal will drop an average of 10lbs of "DO-DO" daily onto the streets along with several gallons of urine. The urine interacts with the soil and "poop" to create a slick surface on paved or brick streets which led to many animal accidents involving serious injury or deaths to animal and humans. Worse still on a warm day steaming "DO-DO" is almost guaranteed to be laced with tetanus - often leading to a delayed case of the horrible killer disease. People were hopeful when the first cable cars rolled down the streets without a "POOPER" in the lead. Power could be supplied by a huge steam engine which drove a series of giant spools of cables, running continuously in a slot midway between the rails. The cable car era only lasted from roughly 1875 to 1885, and by then the electric trolley had been perfected at a huge discount over the capital costs of cable.

So it's not really the "DO - DO", rather, it's what you do with it that counts.

A definitely educational post, I must admit.   I was going to make the point about St. Augustine having these horse-drawn carriages for as long back as I can remember,,,probably much longer, and they remain today one of the attractions to the Nation's Oldest City.    But I presumed everyone knew this anyway.
