It is very possible.

Explanation:

Collecting hair samples from neighborhood dogs who dropped feces on the lawn who to their DNA is very possible. Although a piece of a dog hair contains very minimal quantity of DNA

DNA which in full means deoxyribonucleic acid is the smallest particle in a chemical compound which contains the genetic code of organisms. This involved animals, plants an so on.
