If you’re looking to decrease the size of your carbon footprint, biodegradable could be the option for you and your dog. One thing you may not be aware of, however, is that their earth-friendliness depends on how you dispose of them. Learn more about the truth about biodegradable dog waste bags.

Earth Rated Dog Poop Bags

Earth rated poop bags

At the risk of veering into hyperbole, this is everything you ever wanted in a poop bag: big enough for any business, thick and tough (so there are no surprises), leak-proof, and—get this!—lavender-scented.

They pull off from the roll easily and open with a quick pinch so you can deal with…a quick pinch.

This is a great bag for the environmentally conscious, responsible dog parent.

These heavy doodie bags are a popular choice among pet parents who want to minimize the tactile experience of picking up dog poop. The thick two-ply mitt puts as much distance as possible between you and your dog’s pile, and it covers a significant portion of your lower arm too. It’s a winner among pet parents with large pups who leave large presents.

At over a foot long, they’re an excellent choice for those who struggle with the final inside-out flip (we’ve been there). The handles are designed for easy tying, the bags come in a box of hundreds (rather than a dispenser roll).

With a tongue-in-cheek name, and crafted from recycled materials, these dog waste bags give back as well. 10% of every purchase is donated to the Soi Dog Foundation, which is dedicated to helping street dogs and cats in Thailand. Pet parents will appreciate that they’re easy to open and hold loads of significant size. The secret ingredient? No, not love—cornstarch.
