I carry my full bag and appreciate it when others do also. Of course it's easy for me. Kota weighs 6.5 pounds, ergo, little poops. I use recycled zip lock sandwich bags, I can fill, zip, and stuff them in my pockets. Although DW gets really angry with me if I forget to take them out and she finds them in the laundry. It's a good thing the zip lock are tough and don't open.

We have had problems in our neighborhood, and obviously from large dogs.
Our neighbors have a Neapolitan Mastiff and unfortunately only pick up their backyard about once a month — that gets nasty when it’s really hot out.
Molly usually provides us a good pound o poo on a walk, and Dave faithfully carries it home. So, camper story...it seemed to me that our closet stunk so I suspected poo on a shoe. Nope! It was in a jacket pocket.

I live in Communist California, in the San Francisco Bay area. You would think all the tolerant people out here and all the environmentalist wackos out here would be picking it up and hauling it away. But that's not the case. On the few trails that still allow dogs on them, they do the same thing. They pick it up in the plastic bag and then toss the bag in the bushes. It would be better just to pick up the poop and toss the poop off the trail. The poop will compost Within weeks. But the plastic bag will take several months.
The other thing I do not get is there are more horse trails than dog trials on the peninsula. Yet you never see anybody picking up after their horse. Personally I would rather clean a little poop off my tennis shoes from a dog, then step in a pile a horse leaves and have it go all the way up to my ankle. Yes I have owned horses in the past and I speak from personal experience.

In reality I think their is a particular type of bacteria in dog and human poop (other species as well) that tends to contaminate water sources long after the event. Just something we all need to be responsible about.Dallas

I am only replying to this thread to let people know how easy this is.
we keep tied to our 2 dog leashes a container that holds dodo bags
we put the hand in the bag, grab the poop and pull the bag over the item, never touching the easy disposable waste from fido.
I then put it in a bag form the grocery store and wait till the second K9 decides it is time.
on the way back to the 5er we usually pass a park disposal depository station, you know a dumpster and by the time we are at camp, smell free.
I think those who do not do such are pigs. sorry but it is a very easy task no matter what size dog, before beatrice passed she was 85 pounds, greatest boxer ever, and I would gladly clean up after her again for a few more days with that dog.
