The Amazing SkooperBox

One of the requirements of dog ownership is properly disposing of your darling doggie's poos that he deposits hither and thither during the evening walk. If you don't properly dispose of the poo, you could be looking at a major fine -- depending on what city you're in. But plastic bags are so environmentally-unfriendly. What to do?Some very smart people in California have created the environmentally-friendly SkooperBox, which is made of recycled paper. You pop open the ergonomically designed box, scoop the poo, and throw away the box. The box clips onto your dog's leash, so you don't even have to carry it. The site informs us that Skooperbox breaks down in two days and is completely biodegradable, unlike plastic bags which take 1,000 years to degrade in landfills

I will say that after looking at the website, the boxes seem kind of small. There are times when Chewie could fill at least 2 of those boxes :)

You can find the Skooper Box at Skooperbox.com. 30 Skooperboxes cost $11.99.

Thanks for the info shoppingblog.com!!
