They have many names “Dog Poop Bags” ”Dog Waste Bags” or “Doggie Bags” but they have one function and that is to pick up your pet’s waste.
However picking up after your best friend can be harmful to the environment if you don’t use the right type of bag.
Regular plastic bags may take 500 years to biodegrade according to scientists. That seems like a long time and when you pick up after your pet twice a day, those numbers add up.
As dog walkers we always keep waste bags with us and here is a list of the 3 best Earth friendly bags we recommend:
1. Green N Pack Refill Bags – More Bags & Less Waste – Green’N’Pack eco friendly products are designed to turn plastic into a material that has a completely different molecular structure that is bio-assimilated in the open environment, similar to the decomposition of a leaf.

2. Earth Rated Dog Waste Bags,Lavender Scented -Lavender-scented dog waste bags to make picking up poop a little more fun.
