When your dog makes a mess.....



Yesterday, I got a pretty big package in the mail. I had no idea what it could be! It said "Scoopeeze" on the box and I had never heard of these. I actually thought that maybe I was getting a ice cream maker to review! Imagine my surprise when I found out that it wasn't an ice cream maker, but a doggy waste picker upper! I am very excited about the Scoopeeze because it is completely hand free! Buddy (Golden Retriever, 4) and I do Obedience and Agility in 4-H and so this is perfect!



In my Scoopeeze package was also some playdoh to practice with, before you actually had to use it with real doggy waste! I thought that this was very clever! It works great as well. It comes with plastic dispensers and you insert them into the scoopeeze, scoop the poop, snap the plastic dispenser on the sides together, take it out, throw it in the garbage, and your done!

I like that this is easy to use, and can be done with one hand, so you can hold onto your dogs leash while cleaning up the mess at the same time. It is also easy to use after a few practices with the play doh! Thank goodness for that! One thing that I am confused about however, is there is a little piece that did not come attached to the Scoopeeze, and it looks like there is nowhere to attach it, so I would love to figure that out! The other thing that I would change is make the liners a color to match the scoopeeze, rather than clear!

I am excited about this product and can't wait to use it more!

Update: Scoopeeze PR rep, Andy, contacted me to let me know that they will soon have the option of opaque or blue liners, rather than just the clear liners!! He also let me know that the little piece of plastic is actually used to attach it to a retractable leash. There are directions on the website on how to use this.

I received the scoopeeze and liners free to review, however, this did not affect the opinions expressed in the review in anyway.
