  • Keep up with it!  Do not allow the situation (and poop) to pile up.  Each time after your dog goes out, clean up any mess he has left behind.
  • Dog Poop Bags are often used to pick up the dog poop.  I prefer the ones that are biodegradable and include a holder to clip to your belt.  Some great choices are:
  • Use a Poop Scooper to make the job easier and save your back.  These poop scoops kind of act like a pair of tongs.  There are two sides that come together when you pull up on the handle.  Some have one side that has a rake type end to grab the dog poop and hold in the scoop.  After picking up, you can either use the bags for disposal or bury in a hole in the yard.

  • There is an auto dog pooper picker upper now on the market.  I have not tried this and it seems to be mostly recommended for small to medium dogs.  Might be worth a try.
