Best Dog Poo Bags

[237SJ]

Has anyone got any recommendations please? Big enough to not come into contact with fingers. Thick enough for the same reason.

I buy freezer bags

Thank you. Are they biodegradable?

[woofgang]

no. My council don't use landfill. If rubbish isn't recyclable it all gets closed system burned so no point.

I use Tesco own brand and they’ve always been OK. No mishaps as it were.

Home Bargain...good size, good quality, cheap.

When I briefly had a huge greyhound that did correspondingly huge poohs, I used Earth Rated...heavy, big and thick

Thank you for the replies. I always use biodegradable products if I can. I don`t have a dog but I might be doing charity dog walking so just want to sound out the best bags.

Amazon. Eco hound. EchoFriendly Dog Waste Bags. Very reliable .

237sj, choose carefully if you want genuinely usefully biodegradeable. The earth rated bags are not. They break down into smaller pieces of plastic but it stays plastic. Additionally such material is not storeable. Unless you are going to bury the used bags yourself (and dog poo does not compost or rot down easily) then it won't be treated as compostable material by your local council. If the council uses landfill sites then it may help a miniscule amount but if they are going to be close system burned anyway then you may be spending money to no advantage.

All pastic stays as plastic. You can only do what you can do.

[woofgang]

so why not just buy plastic?

Tesco.

Best thing that one could do with Tescos' as in filling it with the proverbial - their store here is AWFul..... as to bags, Waitrose works quite well.

[DTCwordfan]

Just filled a Waitrose's with a dead chicken and cat poop...if you really want to know that!

^ No I don't :) I chucked a dead pigeon that I found in the garden in a plastic bag and put it into a local litter bin because we had missed bin collection day. I missed the fact that the litter bin was right by the local bus stop. Next time I went for the bus, there were an awful lot of flies around..
