Foldable Poop Scoop with Bag Holder

Description

Nobody enjoys the moment on the pavement when you reach down, bag over your hand, and hope the bag holds. On a wet morning or in long grass, picking up after your dog is the worst part of the walk.

This foldable dog poop scoop puts something solid between your hand and the mess. Open it and scoop. The waste goes straight into a bag fitted over the scoop. It folds flat afterwards and clips onto the lead or your belt loop, so it comes on every walk without filling your pockets.

Purpose: a dog poop scoop that keeps your hands clean

Picking up by hand works until it does not. A thin bag tears. Grass hides the edges. Rain turns the job into a two-bag operation.

A scoop keeps your hand off the ground and the mess inside the bag from the start. The pick-up is cleaner, and you tie the bag off without touching anything you would rather not.

The hidden cost of the bag-over-hand method

Most people double-bag when the ground is wet or the grass is long. That doubles the bags you buy and the plastic you throw away. With a scoop, one bag usually does the job.

Materials & make: how the foldable scoop works

The scoop is made of silicone and plastic. The silicone part folds flat for carrying and opens out into a scoop when you need it. A clip lets you hang it from your lead, a bag strap or a belt loop.

1. Fit a waste bag over the scoop.
2. Open the scoop and pick up the mess from the ground.
3. Pull the bag off the scoop, tie it and drop it in the next bin.
4. Fold the scoop flat and clip it back on the lead.

There is room to carry a roll of standard waste bags with the scoop, so the bags and the tool travel together.

Three colours

Grey, blue or yellow. Yellow is easy to spot if you put it down in the grass. Grey goes with most leads.

Fit: which poop scoop size suits your dog

• Small: 13.5 × 10.5 cm (5.3 × 4.1 in)
• Large: 18 × 14.5 cm (7.1 × 5.7 in)

Sizing: Small suits small dogs and quick walks. Large suits medium and large dogs.

Choosing between small and large

Think about the size of your dog rather than the length of your walk. A small dog’s mess fits the small scoop in one go, and the small scoop takes less space on the lead. For a Labrador or anything bigger, the large scoop picks up in one movement without a second attempt.

What you need to bring

Waste bags are not included. The scoop works with standard roll waste bags, the kind you already buy for walks.

Where to keep it between walks

Leave the scoop clipped to the lead and hang the lead by the front door. The scoop, the bag roll and the lead then leave the house together. If you share walks with someone else, they find everything in one place.

The day it is for

A grey Tuesday. It rained all night and the park grass is long and soaked. Your dog stops in the middle of it. You unclip the scoop and open it. One pick-up, one tied bag, and the scoop folds flat again. Your hands never touch the wet grass.

On the way home, the scoop hangs on the lead with the bag roll, ready for the next walk. For more gear that makes walks easier, see our safer adventures page.

Care

• Rinse the scoop under the tap after use.
• Let it dry open before you fold it away.
• Wash it with warm water and a little dish soap once a week.
• Store it clipped to the lead or by the front door so it never gets forgotten.

Questions about the dog poop scoop

Do I still need poop bags with this scoop?

Yes. The scoop holds a standard waste bag while you pick up, so the mess goes straight into the bag. Bags are not included, but any standard roll of waste bags works.

Which size should I choose?

Choose small for small dogs and quick walks around the block. Choose large for medium and large dogs, so you can pick up in one go without a second scoop.

How do I carry it on a walk?

Fold it flat and clip it to your lead, a bag strap or a belt loop. It stays out of your pockets and comes along on every walk.

Is a poop scoop better than picking up by hand?

For many owners, yes. Your hand stays off the ground and the mess goes straight into the bag, so wet grass and rain are less of a problem. It also tears fewer bags.

How do I clean the scoop?

Rinse it under the tap after use and let it dry open. Once a week, wash it with warm water and a little dish soap, then fold it away dry.
