    We use Smartprice bags when we scoop the litter trays and when I go to walk my Nana's dogs I take a few of them with me. I've never yet had one split (I hope this doesnt jinx it). I bought loads when they had them on offer for 17p for 300 but even at 35p they're still a bargain.

    That's why I stopped using nappy sacks. Hardly any pressure and they split. Not nice having warm dog poo on your hands!


    If it looks like a 'difficult' pile, I tend to use two bags together for extra strength. I've never had one split, but then again my dogs are raw fed so their poos are generally small, solid and easy to pick up.

    Nappy sacks which are very cheap.

    Yep. I use these too.

    I used to use bread bags, any kind of bags, then I found Tesco Value nappy bags. Perfect, cheap, they don't split, and they have handles. Mind you, when I walk a friends two labradors I have to take carrier bags. Boy what massive piles they make. :rotfl:

  • I don't have my poor wee dog anymore but when I did I used to use the basics ot tesco value nappy bags and they were great. Just double up if you think it might be a tricky one to scoop but considering the pice even doubled up they work out nice and cheap. Plus they're usually scented so you don't get that horrible dogpoo whiff eminating out from the bag until you can find a bin!

    How did you manage to get a 60Kg dog into a nappy bag?

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Some councils provide free poo bags, worth checking with your local.

    I've used nappy bags too but find them too thin, I seem to accumulate poo bags everywhere. Every coat has one in now!

    Dunelm Mill sell dog poo bags, 200 for 99p I think. The same as nappy bags just that little bit thicker!

    If you use carrier bags or loose veg bags check for air holes!!
