I was listening to a science programme on Radio 4 last year which discussed this very topic. It was categorically stated that a dog (or any other animal) could not be positively identified from it's faeces. The reason being that it was a mix of what it had eaten with very little of the animal's DNA. The animal's DNA would mainly be in the decomposing bile which by it's very nature would not give a positive result.
So I'm assuming that it would be very costly.
