Friday Finds: Poop Happens

Well, you people might not like to talk about it, but we puppers are pretty open about it.  Poop happens, and all that.  Since our paws are hitting the pavement and not available for removal service, we bring you humans this customer service post about how to pick it up in style!

Allow me to introduce my five favorite poop bag holders.  We've got something for everyone.

First up, for those of you with the rugged, outdoorsy, night-time walking humans, might we recommend the Nature's Miracle flashlight dog pick up bag holder.  This one attaches to any leash with an adjustable strap. They say that the bags that come with it are extra thick with antimicrobial stuff on the bags which inhibits odor-causing bacteria. The fancy flashlight has steady, strobe and blinking L.E.D. light functions so you can saunter, run or party while out on your evening walk. Or send an SOS or do morse code or something.

In the "cute" category, these Tweetie Pie Pooch Pouches come in several varieties. I can just see my mom getting me the bumble bee one to go with my bumble bee Halloween costume from last year that she is probably going to torture me with put on me again this year.  This one gets high marks for being washable and soft so you won't hear the bang bang bang of the holder against the leash with every step.

In the green category, two paws up for the 4U2REUSE bag holder.  This one is made out of recycled plastic bottles and has a second hook to hold a full bag if you have to walk aways to get to the trash can. Hands free toting if you will.  It's got reflective piping around the edges for evening walks and we really love the fabrics they're using here.

For the streamliners amongst you ... check out the BOA POD.  Sleek and to the point .. although they say there's additional compartments for keys or treats here somewhere.  Once more, high marks for not banging against the leash with every step.  I think my dad would probably like this one .. not too fluffy or foofy or any of those things he shies away from.

And, last but not least, for the hoity toity in the crowd, the "a little too proud to announce it's intentions" prize goes to this carrier from Mungo and Maud.  This one is called the Poop Pouch Leaf and is shown in "stone" here.  It's descibed on the website as "made from buttery soft leather" and comes "replete with a loop for attaching to a lead."  WOW.  The description even sounds rich.  Probably means mom is gonna want one of these ... she is all about understated elegance in a buttery leather format ... as I once discovered when I ate a pair of her buttery leather shoes.  Bad idea, but I digress ...

We're hoping we've found something for everybody here.  Do you have a favorite???

  1. Whoa. Great finds there Duncan, as usual. I have to say that We used to use the flushable poop bags until production ceased or sloooowed down so much that Our orders have been on back-order for quite a while. We're reduced to re-use those 'ole produce plastic bags from the grocery. Not very Scottielicious. We'll have to look into your finds.

    Aroo, Stuart
