| gerper's Full Review: K9 PicAPoo |
Although I love my dogs (all five of them), I hate the fact that they have to poop, and I have to clean it up. For years, I suffered, toting around a shovel and a garbage bag, cleaning up. A few months back, I bought a "clamp type" pooper scooper, and that made the job a bit easier, but not by much. Well, my days of dreaded pooper scooping have been made much much much more pleasant now that I have the K9-Pic-a-Poo. I am only kicking myself for not buying this thing earlier (or inventing it myself).
What it is - The K9-Pic-a-Poo is a pooper scooper, with a twist. The K9-Pic-a-Poo is a made from two pieces of plastic PVC pipe. The handle is over 40 inches long, and it is connected to a larger tub, with a notch cut out to "scoop" the poop. The best feature about this product is that there are no special bags or chemicals to buy, simply attach a plastic bag, such as a grocery bag, to the end of the larger tube, wrap it around the bottom of the handle, and insert it into the notch in the handle, and it is*held securely in place. You are now ready to tackle the poop. Once you are done, simply detach the bag, and dispose of it.
Ease of use - No problem. Simply attach a bag, and scoop. I was a bit concerned about poop that was "ground in", but the notch at the bottom of the K9-Pic-a-Poo takes care of that with relative ease. There is no bending or stooping, and best of all, it works fast, and since the K9-Pic-a-Poo is made of PVC plastic, it can easily be cleaned with a hose and will not rust.
Cost - I bought this at a local fair a few weeks ago for $22.00 and let me tell you, it was the best money that I have ever spent! Who cares if I skipped out on a few dozen scones (and I love scones), the K9-Pic-a-Poo is worth it's weight in gold.
Where to buy - The maker of the K9-Pic-a-Poo has a website (www.k9picapoo.com) and it is available there for $24.95 plus $5.95 (tax and shipping). I am told that these are available in some pet stores, but I have yet to see them.
Face it, if you have a pet, scooping up after them is a necessity. Not only is it unsightly, but it is unhealthy. The K9-Pic-a-Poo makes the job simple and relatively painless, and best of all, sanitary. Do yourself (and your pet) a favor and get one of these things, it really is a great way to handle the worst job in the entire world.
