An animal waste collection device comprising a handle attached at first end of a shaft and a collection member at a second end of the shaft. The collection member comprises a shovel head having two hooks at the rear of the shovel as well as another hook positioned on the shaft. At the rear of the shovel there is a waste container, such as a collection bag. The pet waste is collected on the head of the shovel, the shovel is then rotated vertically such that the waste slides off the rear of the shovel into the waste container such that the user is able to collect and package the waste from a standing position without having to touch the waste directly. When the waste container is full the user rotates the device, unhooks the waste container from the collection member and shovel head and disposes of it.

Provided is a diaper for pets including: a main body used by being wrapped around a body of a pet with an inner surface kept in contact with the body of the pet; an absorbent material provided between a first end portion and a second end portion provided at ends of the main body in a lengthwise direction and absorbing liquid thereinto; gathered portions provided in the lengthwise direction with the absorbent material in between and being stretchable in the lengthwise direction; and a joint tape attached to an outer surface on a side opposite to the inner surface at the second end portion and joined to the inner surface at the first end portion. The gathered portions are provided from a side of a first edge portion of the first end portion of the main body to positions short of a second edge portion of the second end portion.

A method of disposing of an absorbent pad may include pivoting a flexible bag from a storage position to a use position such that at least a portion of the flexible bag extends from the absorbent pad, folding a left and right portion of the flexible bag towards a center portion of the flexible bag to form a stacked portion, rolling the stacked portion towards the flexible bag to form a roll, and disposing the roll within a cavity defined by one of an outer surface or an inner surface of the flexible bag.

A system suitable for collecting and transporting urine away from the body of a person or animal may include an assembly having a fluid impermeable casing having a fluid reservoir at a first end, a fluid outlet at a second end, and a longitudinally extending fluid impermeable layer coupled to the fluid reservoir and the fluid outlet and defining a longitudinally elongated opening between the reservoir and the outlet. The assembly can further include a fluid permeable support disposed within the casing with a portion extending across the elongated opening, and a fluid permeable membrane disposed on the support and covering at least the portion of the support that extends across the elongated opening, so that the membrane is supported on the support and disposed across the elongated opening. The assembly can further include a tube having a first end disposed in the reservoir and a second, fluid discharge end.

An excrement collecting apparatus for collecting excrement as produced by a dog or other animal. Said excrement collecting apparatus consists of a harness and an excrement bag assembly. The excrement bag assembly may be reusable or disposable. The entire excrement collecting apparatus may be reusable or disposable. The harness consists of at least two side straps, a lower strap, and a lower back harness strap. The excrement bag assembly is fixedly or removably attached to the lower strap and side straps. A weak adhesive is used to attach a side of the excrement bag to the lower strap so that the excrement bag is held out of the way when it is not filled with excrement, thus allowing an animal to be more comfortable. The weak adhesive allows the excrement bag to release and hang freely when it is filled with excrement.

The renewable, biodegradable, and compostable waste manure bag made from virgin or recycled kraft paper specially designed for the collection of animal waste, such as domestic dogs, will allow the user quickly and easily collect and dispose the pet waste. The waste bag has an innovative design and is environmentally friendly. Further, the waste bag has a feature promoting its closure as to isolate the pathogens for better waste management, containing in its formulation a variety of reagents on its inner surface to neutralize pathogens and aromas. The same material can accelerate the composting and reintegration into the soil.
