Who picks up the poop in your yard?

Who's the lucky duck that gets to pick up the poop in your yard? If you have older children, do you assign it to them as a chore? Do you, or would you be willing to pay for the new poop and scoop services that are out there? Is it worth it? If yes, how much would you pay per week for it?

My husband does it. I told him that I would take turns picking it up with him, but he said that the inside of the house is my responsibility and the outside is his. I think I have a pretty good deal going on.

Poop and scoop services? I never heard of such a thing. We don't let our go the the bathroom in our yard. We take them out for a mile walk. I am the one that ends up picking up after both of them while we are out walking. Hubby doesn't like the warm squishy feeling. We tend to walk about 6 to 7 miles a day with our fur babies. I just hook the bags onto the leash and away we go.

My boyfriend's fifteen year old son is the lucky one in my house or "slave boy" as he refers to himself.lol. But thats about the only chore he is asked to do. I have heard of places that have people that will come pick up the poop for you but I am sure I could not afford it. I'm guessing that they must charge alot. I don't know for sure.

That's my husband's job, along with changing the cat's litter box. It started that way because I got pregnant right away when we got married. My son is 14 months old now, but my husband is already in the habit. Why change it now? LOL
