What a marvelous idea! I just filled in
the holes over and over again with the dirt that was dug out until it was a case
of endurance the dog versus me! Jascha is too old now, he gave up digging,
but there will be a puppy some day.
As far as disposal, I tried one of those in
ground doggie cesspool things but had three dogs and it was just too much.
Compost isn't good with meat eater's poo, the rabbit stuff goes there. So
mainly it was packaged up with the trash. Now with just one dog, it mostly
disappears into the grass.

Used 2 X 10's or 2 X 12's to box it out. Dogs
were allowed to dig in that area only. Wet it down for them during the summer
time. Built it right in front of a 70 year old oak, so it was shaded most of
the day. If they dug anywhere else, we grabbed them, took them to their
sandbox, filled in the 'other' hole with dog feces and covered it over. Took a
little while, but they got the idea.
