Picking up Dog Waste..

[joshchannel]

I've got a Golden Retreaver and when ever I go out walking with her, I hate having to pick up what she leaves!?

Any body got any good products they can suggest?

Thanks!

A cork?

 

[joshchannel]

Thanks for that suggestion...

I was thinking more like this... Dog Poop Carrier.

Hummm, no suggestions, but if it makes you feel any better, my best friend has a Saint Bernard, great pyreness mix, it takes her several of those wonderful little bags to clean up after him. They don't make them in Super Size. :rofl1:

Plastic grocery bags here .

Plastic grocery bags here .

that's what I use more often than not. I just check the bottom of them to make sure there's no holes in them. I forgot to do that once.... *shudders*

I usually take nappy bags with me on walks.

They're cheap, they're blue and they're scented.

I'd like to get biodegradeable bags though to be honest.

I use the biodegradable bags and they work just like any other bag.
I don't think anyone enjoys cleaning up after their dog.
It just comes with owning/being slave to a dog.

lol otherwise, I use the hold your the breathe, pick it up , and ditch it in the nearest trash can method lol

I have a hand-held pooper scooper that has an attachment for a bag, so my hands never have to feel the poop through the bag (I HATE that feeling), and I don't have to clean the scooper either because the poop only gets on the bag. AND there's a built-in doggy bag dispensor. I'm a pansy so this works great for me It's only like $10.

Plastic newspaper bags.

I use plastic bags you get from grocery stores. But like Amber said, be sure to check for holes in the bag first.

Story of my life working at a dog daycare. One wonders what people feed their dogs that makes them have daily piles of sludge poo. It always managed to find the holes in the bag before I did.

Unless you want to carry around big poo picker upper contraptions with you on your walks, I suggest the hold your breath, grab and ditch in the nearest can method.

What you do is you fluff the bag up so there's a bunch of air in it and then twist the open top. Squeeze it and you'll be able to hear/feel/see the devious holes.

I think I'll buy biodegradable cuz you can just huck it in the bush .

I usually just snag a whole bunch of doggy bags at the park or trails as they are all biodegradable and then i'm set to go.

I can relae with skKi as I too workd at the same dog daycare and had the same fate with the holes in the bags!

Hey thanks! I didn't even realise that until I looked at some that I had.

I confess I'd never dealt with this until we moved to the city. In the country, the new poop deposit in the ditch just added to the "country aroma" of the nearby cows and pigs.

When we moved to an apartment and I had to walk them everywhere, I brought a WalMart bag with me. The first time I gingerly put my hand in the bag, picked up the poop, turned the bag inside out and twisted it to "seal" it, I honestly thought, "Gosh, what was I worried about? Changing three babies' dirty diapers was LOTS worse!" Ha ha!

I use the biodegradable bags myself and thank God each time my dog is on a good food and what there is to pick up is firm enough to be easy!

There's nothing worse than trying to pick up liquid poo with a bag at 3am...
