TFX I have friends that do it that way as well. I also have livestock around sometimes on the eastern corner I should try that to keep them away! Most of my dogs are used to them but I have a few that will never give in.

Surprisingly there is no smell to my rather large dog shit compost pile. But I do keep it turned and put lime on it once or twice yearly. The armadillos love the pile because it is chocked full and I mean full of grub worms.
