I thought the inevitable "Oh, shit!" (pun intended) was just a part of life with dogs. My definite advantage is that the normal humidity is so low that feces dries within a few minutes to a dry solid. (( hmmm ... must have a British spell checker loaded on the Raspberry - it just wanted to correct feces with faeces? ))
Actually it's so dry here that I take a leaf rake and gather it all together to shovel into a hole ... like lumps of coal.
