Depends on what you feed your dog. What do you plan on feeding?

Poop size?
 
If you clean up after your dog daily, it us manageable. I have a small townhouse backyard that I clean every other day. Not a big deal.

I have a smallish backyard and the food I have him on gives him small poops for his size.

......and to avoid your pup developing a habit of 'grab n go' snacks, you'll want to keep it picked up anyhow.

Seriously tho, the quality of food you feed your pup will have a lot to do with amount he /she puts out.

Never has a truer thing been said. Grab-n-Go is a real issue for some dogs. Unfortunately, mine is one of them. She's better now, but with lower quality food, she was eating as much as she could for a second helping. I still have to clean up daily, as a soft pile is a tempting treat, but really, everyone benefits if you can take 5 mins a day to pick up the drops.

It's not that big of a deal.

My german shepherd's poop is the size of a human's poops.

Same here, but it depends on which human.
My 8-year-old makes bigger poops.
Seriously.:eek:
