Firstrax Poop Patrol

What pet owner hasn’t been out walking their four-legged friend and realized they left their plastic bags at home? Maybe the realization came in time to run back to the house and get them, or maybe it was too late and Fido had already left a gift to your neighbor on the lawn.

Either way, thanks to N2N, there’s a cute, practical solution to this universal problem – the Poop Patrol Pet Waste Bag Dispenser.

Poop Patrol is made of durable, lightweight plastic, and features a small, circular hole out of which you pull the Firstrax standard size, black bags for picking up your pet’s business. The Firstrax bags come in rolls of 30 that fit easily into the dispenser and are made to fit other leading brands’ dispensers as well, such as Bags on Board, Outward Hound and Pet Zone.

On my first walk with Poop Patrol I found the most convenient feature to be the way it cleverly clips on to your dog’s leash. If you’re anything like me, the most challenging part of being a responsible poop-picker-upper is remembering the bags in the first place.

Thankfully, Poop Patrol removes this step from the process. Each new canister contains thirty bags, when one canister runs out, simply unscrew the easy-to-use dispenser and fit a new canister inside. It takes about 45 seconds.

Pros: Easy to use; leash clip ensures you won't forget when leaving the house.

Cons: None.
