[NAGDU] Pickup bags with handles

[Joy Relton]

Hi all,

When they say that they are bio degradable they mean it. I had this box of
waste pick-up bags packed away in storage for more than a year and hadn't
used them with this dog in more than a year before that. So, when I pulled a
bag out and began to hook it to the toileting harness the handles fell off
and the bag no longer had sufficient form to perform the function for which
it was designed. It's nice to know that they will bio degrade in the trash
or compost.

Hi all,

Below are the ones that I have purchased in the past. BTW, the BIO
degradable ones say that they should be used within a year. It's been more
than a year and I know that they will still work.

The first ones, (these are the ones that I currently use with handles) "Pet
Waste Pickup bags EPI Technology. The large are 9x13 which is a good size.

d-EPI-Technology-BPA-Free-Large-9X13inch-Bags_p_9772.html you can get these
on Amazon.

The ones I can connect to a toileting harness are Bio Bag. These are
7x4.5x13.5. It doesn't tell me the length of the handles but they are fairly
long. That dog was a 60-pound lab and they were roomy on him.

I found this on Chewy for $7.99 for 120 bags.

The Original Poop Bags Handle Tie USDA Biobased Waste Bags, Green, Large,
120 count

These sound pretty good to use with a relieving belt, though I haven't
actually tried this kind.  It says they're thick and leak-proof.

FYI, the laverder scented bags sound nice but they gave me a head ache so I
stick with unscented. 

The boxes of bags do not indicate where I ordered them from, but, a simple
google search should get you there. I am pretty sure that the first ones
listed can be ordered on Amazon because it popped up when I googled it. 

The frustrating thing for me is that, even in Portland Oregon, they are not
composting pet waste.
