I currently throw my dogs feces into my weekly trash. My research has come up with the doggie septic tanks, but I have a Great Dane. The systems available for purchase would be a bit of a joke. That being said, I absolutely do not leave my dog's business on anyone's lawn - including my own. I am the person carrying the bag of business on the entirety of my 5+ mile walks, unless I happen to come upon a public trash can (NOT those of businesses.) If I can carry my Great Dane's business around with me and pick it up out of my lawn immediately, those individuals with smaller dogs can carry theirs too.

I know some people throw it in the trash. There is a DIY septic tank for you dog waste, but what's the best option? Once our pet waste is picked up, what then?
