Why are dog poo bags bigger than nappy sacks

[Shearwater Missile]

Dog poo bags need to be big enough to be able to tie them to a bush, which I understand is the approved method of disposal

(For information, I have never owned a dog)

Dog poo trees I think they are called now.

Hesitate to ask, but has anyone else found it nearly impossible to get the mutt to crap into the bag?

I suppose a Great Dane does massive poo.

Nappy bags are cheeper we have some for when we go out for the day.
But I mostly use old bread bags on the daily walks i find them easier and stronger.

Exactly. Some of us have big dogs that can unburden themselves of a kilo at a time.

Yep my GSD fit into that category

Medium 'food bags' from Wilko, 50p for 200.

You could just use proper dog poo bags, which are much better suited to the task.

I used one of these,



Not a fan of just 'grabbing a turd' although I knew a woman (with another GSD called 'Max') who used to use them as 'handwarmers'

I am so glad I don't have a dog.

I used to ride tandem with a vision impaired bloke and there was some method of tying a poo bag in position at the business end of his guide dog. The dog had been trained to co-operate in this regard.

Indeed this...on the times I have walked my brother‘s dog, I’ve willed her not to crap!

Something wrong in their diet if you dread picking it up, dog poo should solid stools that you can easily handle (think white poo of the 60's (it's not bleached when fresh)). Probably too much fillers and binders in cheap (and POSH ££££'s food).

I just don’t like picking up warm stinky dog crap. I don’t think that’s particularly odd!
I wasn’t alive in the 60s so I don’t know what you’re talking about there
