I walk our standard poodle each morning, very early before neighbors wake up. LOL Wherever he poops, I pick it up with a plastic bag (empty bread bags are the best). I tie it up and put in a designated, trash can (with lid and trash bag liner) in our villa yard. Once a week, I put out in trash. Because the poop is wrapped already, I do not have to double bag the trash can liner. Also, smell stays outside, but with lid on always, no odor emits. However, I would suggest putting a brick or stone on top of the lid, as I do, because one time I opened the lid and a wasp or something came flying out. Now, with brick on top, no flying bugs. Aren't we a fascinating bunch?
