No fuss - I was taught to clean up after my own dogs from being a small child, if I was big enough to put food in one end, I was big enough to clean up what came out the other.
I am resident crap shoveller and I clean out the pooh buckets once a week, it really doesn't bother me at all.
To add, if we are on the forest paths they both go off the main trail and into the ditches to do it and I do not remove it, it mulches down very nicely, I walk the tracks every day and I see it for myself.

Aren't they charmers
I don't have a problem, like CC I could handle a shovel from an early age (grandmother had a boarding kennels and guess what my saturday job was). Mind you at the moment they are consuming so much horse muck it is like skipping out after the horses.
I used to work in Boarding Kennels, and one measely bag of dog sh!t is nothing after you have had to empty two shovels piled high with over a 100 dogs' cr@p. Now that does make you gag, especially if you happen to be rather hungover and there is a few dogs with dicky tummies in...
My dogs pooh - no worries. Some other random dogs pooh - bleurgh!
Human pooh - no worries, although when Henry ate some, got it stuck in the roof of his mouth and I had to scrape it out then carry it home in a pooh bag, I did feel a trifle bilious to say the least....
My favourite was in the Kennels when some dog would have a VERY upset tum and their rank mate would eat it, THEN sick it up and I would have to clear it up
Especially nice on a blistering hot day with a hangover...
Just scoop it with no fuss, although i remember the first few times i had to poop scoop being difficult as i was a bit grossed out by the feel of it in the bag and smell. I have since worked in kennels and had to scoop lots of poo, so just cleaning up after my 2 dogs seems quite easy now.
out and about I just scoop it up with a little bag. Jack used to always wait until we were at a crossing in town to do it though which could be cringeworthy lol.
In the garden I have a bag lined bucket and a shovel, so whoever lets her out cleans it up and I empty it.
I saw an interesting article which suggested it was preferable to get a stick and flick dog poo off the path if you're walking in the forest etc, because some people scoop with a bag then hang the bag off a tree and obv. it's preferable to to the first.
