There are special harnesses with bags that can be attached to the guide dog's behind and they can poop straight into the bag. However, fresh dog poop is usually quite warm; and if the visually impaired person has their hand in a bag, they can feel for the warmth of the poop and pick it up that way.

Why do blind people have dogs?
All Dogs rely on their sense of smell. Just as humans have a primary sense -vision, dogs have a primary sense - smell. I'm sure you've heard that when a creature looses one of their 5 senses, nature usually compensates by giving more power to one of their other senses. It makes sense that a dog's sense of smell would increase as a result of loosing its eyesight. I had a lab/chow mix growing up that had cataracts. She could barely see by the time she was 11, but that girl could smell me out a mile away.
Who cleans up after guide dogs?
Guide dogs are taught to pee and poop on cue. The dog's "partner" (the blind person) learns how to take care of their dog, including how to collect and dispose of the poop.Some cities exempt guide dog owners and other service dog owners from scooping laws, but most do not. There is no need for an exemption because blind people are just as capable as sighted people in doing most things, including cleaning up after their dogs. A person doesn't have to see poop to pick it up. Like anyone else, a blind person knows which end of the dog is which, and the dog only toilets on command so they know the when and where of poopology. A hand is inserted in a plastic poop bag like a glove and then the scooper feels around for the warm squooshy stuff, grasps it, and turns the bag inside out. It's exactly the same for a sighted person who walks their dog at night and must scoop in the dark.Local council i suppose lol =]The guide dogs blind partner picks up the dogs stool.

How dogs help deaf people?
Dogs can be trained to react to noises and to alert the owners to what's making the noise. Say if the doorbell rings, or if someone knocks on the door, the dog can nudge the owner and then walk to the door to show where the noise is coming from. Service dogs are individually trained to perform tasks that help their disabled owners overcome the limitations to daily life activities experienced because of their disability. For example, guide dogs help blind owners around obstacles they cannot see. Hearing dogs signal their hearing disabled owners about important sounds like the doorbell, a smoke alarm, or a baby crying. Mobility dogs pick up dropped items for people in wheel chairs who cannot reach them.
