What's your method to pick up dog **** and dispose of it. As much detail
as possible please. There are a lot of dog owners here who would like to
know. Here's your chance to post something useful. Please don't disappoint.

If y'all don't know how to perform that simple task by now Stinky, y'all shouldn't own a dog.


Perhaps you have a better way. Don't be testy now. We're just trying to
engage you in a civilized manner.

"Here's one way that I've seen demonstrated. Â*It's neat and tidy, and
has the additional advantage of warming your hand on a cold day:

Insert hand into the bag like it was a big mitten;

Pick up the dog poop;

With your free hand, turn the bag inside out thus leaving poop inside
the bad and freeing your (still clean, now warm) hand."


Good to see someone using common sense.
That's the exact method used by myself and the vast majority of the local dog walkers....and yes, the type and size of bag matters.
The freebe version supplied by our parks and grounds people are a bit too narrow for me. Somewhat like sticking your hand in a cookie jar and after loading up, get stuck. I buy ours from the Dollar store...60 biodegradable bags for a loonie.

I got a couple hundred (a whole roll) for free when the gated
community across the river lost them in the water. We weren't even
sure what they were when we picked them up but we pick up anything we
see in the water.
Once they dried out I figured up what they were and put them in the
golf cart.
As I said, Mr Ed is very good about coming home to his tree before he
drops a deuce. When we had an incident I go get my shovel and drag him
back to watch the clean up and the walk of shame back to the tree.
He figured it out right away.
Now it is just a sprint back to his spot, keeps us both in shape.
He is funny sliding into home. He assumes the position about 3 feet
from the spot and slides the rest of the way. (occasionally doing a
little "crop dusting")
