To Touch or Not To Touch

While some people can’t be bothered to pick up their dog’s poop until it’s too late, there are those who can’t even pick it up with a scooper. Fortunately they can order the PooTrap:

When I first watched this video I thought it was ridiculous that folks would have a problem using a pooper scooper or just putting the bag over your hand. Life with a dog can be pretty gross, but I couldn’t come up with a justification for this product until I saw this video—I guess it would be great for those who live in concrete cities or other places with little-to-no access to grass.

It still seems weird to me, though.

    I think the Ginger would probably like one of these for her dog/child.

  2. Really? That just seems like too much work. Another strap, another special item for the dog. I bet there are hacks/mods for this to be attached to babies and the elderly.

    @bedwetter: Why would The Ginger want one? Does she not have grass?

    @The Partner: I agree about the extra step. Although, we don’t have a 100% fenced-in yard, so we (sometimes) have to put at least a collar on George. If this were the only thing to put on the dog, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

    I think this would be good if you were house-bound—you could just send out your dog without having to worry about your yard getting filled with shit mounds.

    I’m not even going to address your suggestions for hacks.

    She gags when she tries to pick up poop with a pooper scooper. The less she has to do with the poop, the better.

    Who knew so much discussion could be had about picking up dog shit.

    Honestly, I just wanted to see how many times I could get folks to talk about “poop” and “shit”.
