Who Invented the Pooper Scooper?
History:- Brooke Miller, of Anaheim, California, is credited with the invention of the pooper scooper, according to the Web site Invention Connection. The design she invented, and holds the patent on, is a metal bin with a rake-like edge attached to a wooden stick. It also includes a rake-like device to scoop the poop into the scooper and a hatch that can be attached to a garbage bag that fits onto the base. Hers has an automatic temporary latch so the poop platform stays fixed in an upward position to keep poop in the bin. It is unclear when she invented this or trademarked the name, but the generic term made it into the dictionary in the early 1970s
Types:
- Miller's is not the only type of pooper scooper kicking around, although it is one of the most popular. Some do not have a hatch that attaches to a garbage bag. Others are made of plastic, rather than metal or wood. Still others do not need a rake-like part because they operate with a hinge that opens and closes to "eat up" the poop by pulling on a handle situated at the top of the stick where you hold the device
Features:
- Another pooper scooper on the market is called the "Scoop and Sack It," or S.A.S.I., since Miller already holds the trademark for the official "Pooper Scooper" name. This one consists of a handle with a cylindrical scooping device to which a small plastic bag can be attached. The handle also has a little carrying device for extra bag storage. This one was invented in 1998 by a 10-year-old boy known only as Aaron (no last name) living in Broomfield, Colorado
Benefits:
- Never having to bend down and put hands near dog doo is the biggest and most obvious benefit of the pooper scooper. But it can also help save the earth. Dog waste lying about is a festering breeding ground for viruses, parasites and bacteria, especially E. coli. Not only can the waste break down and infect the soil, but it can be stuck on shoes and carried into the home or filter down into waterways. Most states have hefty fines for not picking up after a pet in public places. In Arizona, it's illegal to even have dog waste lying around a private yard for more than 24 hours
Warning:
- Pooper scoopers need regular cleanings, or they will just become as soiled and disgusting as leaving the poop to fester. Hose off regularly and even soak in a bleach bath to kill off any germs and bacteria. Anyone with an unsteady hand should also be wary, as people can make a real mess with a pooper scooper if they do not scoop the poop from the bottom right into the bin. Also always make sure any bag is securely fastened to the device so the dog doo simply doesn't fall through the opening and back onto the ground
How to Make Your Own Dog Poop Scoop:
- Purchase a mini garden rake. Maybe you could dream up a way of making your own but for the cost and time involved, the purchase is the winner in this scenario. Long handle is a plus, it's the narrow rake end we are after here. The kind made for going between plant rows. Metal is best
- Mark your pan for the size of scoop/pusher you want. A decent sized pan will easily be enough to cut in half to make two of these. Always great to have a spare on hand. Marking with a black magic marker should do the trick nicely
- Put on your safety goggles and saw your pan along the line you made. The cut end will be the side you are scooping dog poop with. A quick run with the grinder wheel is a nice touch. It can also aide in sharpening it for you, which may come in handy should your dog have loose stools one day
- Drill a hole into the side of the pan that sits directly across from the cut side. This hole needs to be centered. Eyeballing it is fine
- Lay your cut pan on the floor and stand your broom handle up next to it where it will eventually be fastened for use. Insert your black marker into the hole you drilled so it will mark your broom handle
- Drill through your broom handle at that mark. Drill all the way through the handle
- Place your washer over your bolt and push your bolt through the inside section of the pan and through the handle. Screw on your nut to secure
- Proceed out into your yard and follow your dog around. Enjoy your new pooper scooper
Tips & Warnings:
- Use a drill bit that is sized appropriately for the size bolt you are using
- If you don't have a pan you feel good about cutting up, try Goodwill or garage sales
- Don't use a bolt that is so large that it could weaken your handle
Package Included:
- 1 x Portable Long Handled Pet Dog Pooper Scooper

09-28-2010- Other Thoughts: I had bought this for my boyfriend who picks up our dogs poo. He said it was the best thing I've ever bought him, lol. It's lightweight, and has the jaws of death that pick up ANYTHING. It's got strong jaws which allows it to pick up heavier poop. And is far enough away that you don't have to smell or get too up to it.

08-06-2010- Other Thoughts: This is a well made piece of equipment, it's even pretty,(purple color). Best if all it does the job. It even picks up deer droppings, a real problem in our area. Dog droppings, wet or dry, large or small are a cinch!
