Flush Puppies! Now there is an alternative dog "do" bag for those who live in the city, or other places where dog waste is an issue and biodegradeable or plastic bags just don't make sense. (Plastic bags never make sense, by the way) Just drop the bag in the toilet and flush. The bags harmlessly breakdown in less than a minute and your dog's business is handled safely at your water treatment plant. Each Flush Puppy bag measures 8"x11". Convenient size (about the size of a portable tissue pack) with 15 Flush Puppies per pack.
It’s important to properly dispose of dog poop. These are some facts regarding the health and wellness risks involved in abandoning pet waste:

- There are an estimated 44.8 million dogs in the United States.
- In a city of 100,000 people or 43 square miles, dogs can generate about two and a half tons of feces per day. That's almost two million pounds a year.
- A plastic bag can take up to 1000 years to decompose in the landfill.
