The purpose of this is so that the visually impaired person can tell by the arch of the dogs back whether it is deficating or urinating. They then use a bag just like everyone else to pick up the poop. The poop is warm, it is fairly easy to find! The visually impaired can leave the bag on any street curb without breaking any rules. That is, at least, my understanding of this mystery. When we raise guide dog puppies, we touch them on their backs to get them used to being touched.
