ABSTRACT:
An improved, hand-held device for the picking up of animal waste in a clean, hygienic manner using a scooping device (#26) and a fold-lock-top sandwich bag as the receptacle for the waste material is the embodiment of this invention. The large pocket (#14) of the fold-lock-top sandwich bag fits through a central opening in the scoop device while the small pocket (#22) of the same bag completely covers the scooping-type tapered blade (#28) so as to prevent any soiling of the scoop device (#26) by the waste material. This scoop device (#26) is attached to a locking telescopic handle with an adjustable belt clip (#8) so as to allow freedom of the hands while in transport. By using a fast forward motion, with the wrist, the animal waste is lifted slightly by the tapered blade (#28) and deposited in the large pocket (#14) of the very common, inexpensive fold-lock-top sandwich bag used as its receptacle. The bag is easily removed by lifting the flap (#18) of the fold-lock-top bag off the hook (#16) which is used to keep the bag open while in use. The scoop device (#26) itself never gets dirty.
