Welcome to a new week, dog lovers! Today we’re making the best out of bad situations, like Mondays, cold weather, the flu and of course, having to pick up doggy doo-doo. If you own a dog, you know the utter despair of having to grab a handful of steaming fresh poop every time you take your pooch for a walk. Living in New York City, a lot of dogs do all their business outdoors, which means many handfuls of warm, mushy doo-doo. We’re here to rescue you from this disgusting but necessary task, with 5 Life Hacks for Picking Up your Doggy’s Doo-Doo. You’re welcome!

Dog Life Hacks

Life Hack #1 Invest in a poop bag dispenser
Our first life hack for picking up doggy poop is investing in a poop bag dispenser (if you don’t already have one). These little gadgets are the most useful thing a dog walker can ask for and most of them click easily onto your pooch’s leash or on a belt loop. They’re inexpensive, come in all kinds of crazy and cool designs and will ensure you have easy-to-use poop bags on every adventure you and your dog go on!

Life Hack #2 Freeze it!
OK, this one may be a little strange but we promise it works! There are a few products on the internet (like Poop Freeze) that allow you to “freeze” your dog’s poop by using an aerosol spray that stiffens it up, making it easier to pick up. These products also eliminate odor which is great for queasy dog owners. Don’t knock it ‘til you try it!
