What happens if you get dog excrement on your shoes and you walk into your house?

Question

The dog excrement was fairly dry but i walked into my house and noticed it later. I was unsure what to do because later i walked with socks on close to where i walked with my shoes. Were my socks then impure?

Answer

If the excreta of the dog was dry and did not soil the socks, then the socks will not be impure.
