Default Chemo poop

A friend has an interesting problem. She has 3 Cairns, one of which
is getting oral chemo every other day. She is in a wheelchair and all
of the dogs have constant access to the yard through a doggie door.
Now the problem - the dog with cancer had a coprophagia problem as a
pup and she's not completely sure it's 100% gone. A 2nd dog is a
rescue she's adopted within the past 6 weeks so the new dog's habits
aren't completely known yet. Of course, she doesn't want any of the
dogs getting extra/any chemo drugs by eating poop. Right now she has
the dog being treated tied to her chair by a long line, or crated if
she leaves the house, so she can be absolutely sure to clean up
immediately after he defecates.

Anyone got any better suggestions?

Thanks, Lynn K.
