Considering she's agreed to scoop the poop, I really don't get the fuss.
Bathing is fine, and I don't want a house to stink of dog.
We'll have a huge garden, live in the countryside, both highly active, and I'm doing a minimum of a years research to get ready for it. It's a dog, not an impulse purchase of a bar of chocolate! The dog will be at the end of 2013 or some time in 2014.
Just because I'm not going to pick up crap, doesn't mean I won't look after the dog. It's actually amusing that you see picking up poo as being the qualifier as a good dog owner. Nothing about training, about diet, about exercise, about dedication or focus. The entire criteria for being a good dog person, according to this thread, is the willingness to pick up a turd!!! I'm genuinely surprised at the reaction.
