Especially with big dogs where you’re picking up fresh, steaming, human-sized turds with nothing but a few microns of plastic between it and your hand.
Bagging it up on a walk is decidedly worse than scooping it out of a litter box if the dog happens to have diarrhea. At least the litter clumps up, making cleanup much easier…
Good luck training a dog to use the box consistently though.
Is scooping poo out of a box daily really any worse than bagging it up on a walk daily?

For big dogs, I wear boots and kick the dookie into a fine mist against my neighbors houses as a disposal method. I have warrants in 3 states.
Having it in the house constantly coating everything (usually clean laundry) with a dusting of poo is definitely worse.
they have the genuine automatic litterbox that arent death traps, i see people hating scooping up poo use those.
I’d say the weather is a factor

If your dog has diarrhea. You just leave it? Or pour water over it?
Why would you try to pick it up
Fenced yard with a small dog, so I don’t have to pick it up on the daily, only if he poops on a walk.
