Hmm, I have a worry...it these become soft in water-what happens when you're in the garden/park/forest & it is raining-? surely as you scoop up the poop- the rain hitting the bag will make it start to turn soft-and you will end up with either dog poo on your hands, in your car- or it drops out whilst you're taking it up to flush it down the loo?
This is a massive worry- seeing as 60-70% of the time-its raining in the uk!!!

Re: Use Flushable Doggy Bag, Interesting experience

I dont think the concept is good as your only adding to the water wastage issue. Why flush the toilet when you can put the poop in the dustbin.

Well, see the new invented flushable facility in Pethabitats.com
Surely we already have a method for environmentally friendly dog poo disposal - composting toilet systems. They don't waste water! All you need to do is dig a hole....

Don't you have to double-wrap it? If you don't here, they won't empty your bin!

They are called public toilets.... although I suppose finding one that actually flushes is nothing short of a miracle these days LOL

I don't think it's a good idea.... why carry it all the way home with you when there are poo bins in the park and other places? I just don't see the point in it.... and why flush the bag? If you were at home, couldn't you just bag up the poo and then empty the bag into the toilet, and flush it without a bag? Surely that's more environmentally friendly than putting any bag down the toilet?

Re: Use Flushable Doggy Bag, Interesting experience

Hm, I'm not convinced that a bag full of turd wouldn't block my toilet, biodegradable or not - after all it gets blocked if I flush a bit of kitchen roll down it. Even if it does work, I can't see how flushing a poo down the toilet using between 6 and 13 litres of water each time can possibly be construed as helping the environment. Unless of course you have a system in your home to collect rainwater or re-use your bathwater, it's totally counterproductive.

We're lucky where we live - about 90% of my dog's crimes against the environment are committed within 10 metres of a tidal river so most of the time I'll just pick them up with improvised chopsticks made from twigs and chuck the lot in... It sinks straightaway and leaves no nasty surprises for the bin-man. If he goes in the park or garden it's going in the bin outdoors or gets buried, I'm not about to traipse it through the house and upstairs to the bathroom! And if there were to be any accidents indoors, it'd go down the loo wrapped in bog roll, not a pointless little bag. So sorry, I won't be buying your product

ps OH MY DAYS as well they are also selling a "Pooch Pouch" -
Quote:
The PoochPouch is a fanny pack with a detachable plastic-lined pouch on the front where you can stash used dog waste bags (after your dogs have done their duty) until you can flush them. Now you don't have to race your dogs to the nearest trash can just to get past the most unpleasant part of being a pet owner.
hahahaha what a revolting idea! A special bum bag to put your dog sh*t in!
I would pay to see this company on the Dragon's Den...

Re: Use Flushable Doggy Bag, Interesting experience

Personally, i like the fact that my poo bags survive going through the wash a few times. Im forever forgetting to empty my pockets before i stick my jeans in the machine.
