Dog Poop 101: Lesson II
BAG FOR THE POOP: First thing's first: big dogs-big poop, little dogs-little poop. Choose your poop bag accordingly. For toys, a sandwich bag will work nicely and makes for great practical jokes for the kids' lunch box. Grocery bags work fine for medium size dogs if you're not over feeding your animals. For really big dogs, you might want to consider the optional poop wagon with attached poop shovel [I have a slightly used model in my garage I'll sell you cheap; the previous owner was an old lady whose dog only pooped one day a week].
PICKING IT UP: It's important to keep your eyes on the poop. Lots of beginners take their eye off the poop so you may want to bring along some Handy Wipes on your first poop run. Don't worry in a few years it will seem perfectly normal to be picking up poop with your left hand while your right hand is shaking your new neighbors hand.
