A grabber scoop and scraper device with sticky roll and LED includes a bucket scoop that opens and shuts by squeezing a handle grip attached thereto via an extension rod. The bucket scoop includes two halves each configured with attaching ends and scraper ends. A sticky portion is disposed concentrically on the extension rod proximal the bucket scoop to temporarily attach at least one disposable bag(s) thereto. A disposable bag encloses some of the extension rod to the two bucket scoop and attaches to the sticky portion to form a closed container inside-out therewith around a grabbed material. A grabber and scoop contents disposing method includes forming the bucket scoop and using the sticky portion to temporarily attach at least one disposable bag thereto. A directional light emitting diode attached to the device shines in a direction of the sticky roll and the bucket scoop and may be automatically activated.

Systems and methods are provided for integrated article dispensers for leashes which provide greater handling and responsiveness. One embodiment is an apparatus is in the form of an article dispenser that includes a first end for coupling with a first tensile member, a second end for coupling with the second tensile member, and a rigid housing between the first end and the second end. The rigid housing defines an internal volume for storing articles, and that further defines an opening. In response to the article dispenser bearing a threshold amount of tension, a centroid of the article dispenser aligns within a threshold distance of being collinear with a force that generates the tension. While the centroid of the article dispenser is within the threshold distance of being collinear, rotation of the system about an axis of the forcer applies less than a threshold torque to the tensile members.

A pet waste grasping device including a telescopic assembly, a claw assembly, a light assembly and a bag assembly is disclosed. The pet waste grasping device is a pet waste scooper for collecting of pet waste without the need for a user to come in direct contact with the pet waste. The pet waste grasping device include an elongated shaft having a handle and a trigger-like actuator at the proximal end of the shaft, wherein the distal end of the shaft supports an illumination device that projects light downward and a series of extendable fingers which retract and expand when the trigger-like actuator is manipulated to release a bag with pet waste therein. The extendable fingers support the bag which is preferably a plastic bag that is placed over the extendable fingers manually.

A re-usable pooper scooper device (1) and a dog leash (101) comprising said pooper scooper device (1) are disclosed. The pooper scooper device (1) is easily manufactured, compact and less cumbersome to carry than those of the prior art.

The pet waste disposal device has a stabilization pillar mounted in a protection frame. The bottom part of the pillar is fitted with a pheromone reservoir and the top part of the protection frame is fitted with an absorption pad and then a filtration pad. At the bottom of the frame, permeable openings are located, which are used to drain the filtered urine and the rainwater in the surrounding areas. Underneath the filtration pad, a probe is located, which checks the level of filtration pad contamination and signals the need to replace the filtration pad. The pillar is fitted with a frame with a container, in which a poop bag is attached. The pillar is also fitted with a supply bin, a feature used to fasten the leash to the pillar, and a pet waste scooper.

A scooper assembly has a scoop container attached to the end of a hiking stick and a bag-retainer for retaining a roil of waste collection bags. The container is configured with a set of teeth that extend out from the bottom of the inlet opening and an outlet opening on the back of the container is configured for dumping feces from the container. The container is configured to retain a bag around the back outlet opening. The bag-retainer has a slot for pulling the end of the roll of bags therethrough, bag-teeth to aid in tearing a bag off from the roll, and a cleat and tray for holding a filled bag. A light-mount is configured to allow positioning of a light in any direction and a detachable rake may be alternately used to collect feces. A receptacle for personal articles and for pepper spray is provided.

The pick-up of waste, especially dog waste, can be cumbersome, dirty, and impractical in some cases. A portable vacuum with a compostable bag at the front end of the vacuum can take away from the weight, mess, and impracticality. A mechanism for closing the compostable bag without direct touch can add to the hygiene, cleanliness, and ease of the process of picking-up waste.

A pet waste collection system has a main housing with a recessed wall area adapted for nesting of a collapsible frame, and at least one orifice on said back wall for movement of a portion of a sliding pole. At the far end of the sliding pole is a collapsible frame for a holding a waste receptacle, which is formed of at least two unconnected frame sections, wherein these unconnected frame sections have a first, collapsed position and a second, extended, open position. One frame section of said at least two unconnected frame sections is a leading linear frame section for positioning closest to the rear of a pet to create a wide linear edge area for efficient pet waste collection. Another embodiment pet waste collection system has a fixed handle, a main housing and a separate telescopic pole which moves the connected frame to and from the main housing.

A scooper assembly has a scoop container attached to the end of a hiking stick and a bag-retainer for retaining a roll of waste collection bags. The container is configured with a set of teeth that extend out from the bottom of the inlet opening and an outlet opening on the back of the container is configured for dumping feces from the container. The container is configured to retain a bag around the back outlet opening. The bag-retainer has a slot for pulling the end of the roll of bags therethrough, bag-teeth to aid in tearing a bag off from the roll, and a cleat and tray for holding a filled bag. A light-mount is configured to allow positioning of a light in any direction and a detachable rake may be alternately used to collect feces. A receptacle for personal articles and for pepper spray is provided.

A canine tethering device for walking a dog includes a leash that is coupled to an upper end of a frame. An umbrella, a flashlight, and a pouch are coupled to the frame. A sprayer that comprises capsaicin and propellent is coupled to the leash. The sprayer is configured to selectively aerosolize the capsaicin. Waste bags are sequentially extractable, through a hole that is positioned in the pouch, from a roll that is positioned in the pouch. A pair of jaws is pivotally coupled to a lower end of the frame. An actuator is coupled to the frame proximate to the upper end. The actuator is operationally coupled to the jaws. The actuator is positioned to pivot the jaws to an open configuration to insert dog waste between the jaws and to pivot the jaws to a closed configuration to collect the dog waste.
