   But you still have to grab the bag. Why bother embarrassing your dog like that when you're still doing the gross work.

   Dog's dignity my foot. This is an animal that licks it's own nether regions and will hump anything vaguely horizontal...

   Okay, you'd expend far more energy strapping that thing on than you would by just bending down and picking up the crap the usual way.

    Npt April 1 so...

    Every single dog I have ever known would probably submit to wearing one of these, such was their training. Even tho their most basic instinct would be to tear it off, they would not.

    Every single dog I have ever known would probably give me a look of acute embaressment when I tried to put one on. People who have lived with dogs will concur - have you ever seen a dog try to conceal its own fart? Nah. They can't.

    Every single dog I have ever known is better trained than to poop in an inappropriate place. And thy keep it in place till they get to where they should!

    Every single dog I have ever known has lived in places where they can poop in peace - in places that they can do so. I wouldn't know them otherwise.

    A dog who needs one of these is a dog that poops at home and people don't care to help them know better...

    Is it really April 1 or have we come to this?

    One HUGE problem. My dog has a tail that is very long. It would never fit in the bag. And if it did its tail would be so soiled it would not be worth it.
    Bad idea.

    And exactly how much better is it to have a dog with a smeared poop ring around their behind ?

    I'd rather pick up the stuff.

    I admit I dislike picking up the poop. It's warm and feels gross through the bag. However, I attempted to hold a bag open under him once. Didn't go so well.

    I no longer complain about picking up the poop.

    Why do I have the feeling this is a fetish in Japan?

    Yeah... that is just ridiculous.
    My dogs would just give me a WTF is this look, and then probably either procede to take it off w/ their mouths, or scoot around on their bums trying to get it off.

    OK it's neat to a certain degree, But reading the comments it seems to be Troll Bait more than "neat".

    Environmental pollution? So what's better for the environment, letting poop sink into plant/grass covered ground to fertilize it like nature intended or sealing it in a petroleum based plastic bag, placing it in yet another plastic bag with other garbage and putting it in a huge hole in the ground full of concentrated waste and garbage to be rained on and contribute to polluted run-off?

    Whether one thinks this is Neat or not Neat, one can't pretend to speak for everyone or be 'objective' when you say "definitely not Neat". Just say "I think this is not Neat."

    I don't believe in picking up dog poop. I'd rather not put more plastic bags into land-fills.

    I've seen them on horses in Antigua, Guatemala. Great idea for horses as the owners never carry a bag to clean up. Only dog owners do that.

    I hate it when people let their dogs crap everywhere and never pick it up. Its so disgusting. I live on a busy street and I can never mow my yard. Its a landmine out there and I don't dare even walk on my own property. Its even worse when the mower hits it all. Yay disgusting dog crap clouds. MMmm tasty!
    I don't have pets. I have nothing against dogs, just their owners. Jerks.

    In Melbourne, Oz (the real Melbourne by the way), if you don't pick up after your dog then people will hound you.

    This is also more proof that cats are smarter.
