With the waste products of 3 dogs ... small , medimu and
medium-large , and they all leave piles of poop in the yard . I'm
about to drive around the neighborhood picking up bags of leaves for
compost , and wonder if I can add the dog poop to my pile .

Predator species dung can contain dangerous pathogens. Do not use it
on food crops.

I dunno where they'd get dangerous pathogens , these dogs don't even get
table scraps , just dry dog food . And doesn't a properly maintained compost
heap attain high enough temps to kill most all bacteria ?
I'd just like an alternative to tossing it into the trash can .
