What is your preferred method of poop pick-up? (pooper scooper, glove and bag, etc)
Double bag the hand with plastic Safeway grocery bags, transfer to another grocery bag for disposal.
Who is the designated pooper picker upper? (You, designated spouse, children, third-party vendor)
Im his only friend when it comes to poop pick up time.
How often do you pick-up poop? (daily, weekly, monthly) What is the weight per volume do you estimate you remove?
Weekly, probably 5 lbs or so at least.
Do you inspect the poop for proper digestion of food or other reasons?
Yes, I inspect for bits of his kong balls, or other foreign matter. To avoid potential health problems, and to know when its time to throw out and replace certain toys.
Does your dog only use one specific area or is the whole yard used?
I trained him to only poop on a certain small gravel patch far from the door and pool. Nothing is worse than swimming in the pool on a hot summer day and having Norman poop baking 3 feet away.
What technique or methods do you use to prevent lawn damage?
See above answer. Although, Rye grass seed and a little top soil fixes any pee spots he might make in the grass.
Do your local ordinances specify specific requirements to dispose of the dog waste?
Nope, but the HOA will fine me if there is any excess poop in the yard at the weeks end.
