In a few days, our new family addition will be able to go for his first walk (having had his innoculations and got over his kennel cough).What method of poop scoop do you use?

Some people recommend nappy sacks, while others go for the pet shop plastic grabs (with bags).

Please don't anyone post that they don't clear up when walking in public areas!

Both nappy sacks and the cheap poo bags from Tesco etc that come in a bone shaped dispenser .... they're about £1

Various things from nappy bags to somekind of paper bag with cardboard bits on it for scooping up the s*** , cant remember what they are called though

In fact i think the council here gives them out free when i think about it

We use plastic poop bags with the twin handles for fastening the used bag securely. Turn the bag inside out over your hand, pick up the dogs droppings (hopefully fairly solid ) & turn right way up and knot the handles
For those occassions when our little darlings have a really soft or loose toilet , I carry a squirty bottle of disinfectant to cover what I can't pick up

I have just seen that a freeze spray is available for the softer ones!

The worst are  those that bag it .... and then hang it on the nearest tree/bush!  :-? :-? :-? They must think there's a dog poo fairy to clear up after them

Well to be totally honest Nick, when one of ours does a runny whoopsy, me & swmbo 'freeze' wondering how the hell we're going to clean it up! So that stuff looks like a good if rather expensive remedy for those times, but the regular poop bags would be no good unless we take an ice pick to break it into manageable 'portions'!!! :-? Being a responsible pet owner is a bit more involved than it's made out to be

Yes strange that one, go to the trouble of bagging then dump on the nearest hanging point - when I cycle to work (most days) I go through a park and sure enough every day there will be a collection of these bags waiting for the fairy to pick up.

Perhaps if we told them to pop them under their pillows and wait for a nice shiny pound coin to turn up..

Don't get me started on the fact  that pet owners dont pick up after there dogs and  I think its disgusting when they dont pick up after there dogs>

I always keep my back garden poop clean and will always pick up after my dogs if they was to one a poop on the path while out walking them.

I use the sented bags

Is that just to make the red poo bins smell nice?

My old man buys freezer bags, strong and you get 60 for about £1. one guy had the cheek of letting his dog leave his mess on the pavement outside my place, when i confronted him his excused was ' i havent got any bags so what do you want me to do?'. 30 seconds and an adsa bag later he cleaned it up and was on his way feeling a bit sheepish no doubt.
