Dog lovers, do you know anything about Flushadoo dog poop bags?

I just read that Flushadoo bags are 'green-' or 'environmentally friendly doggy poop bags that you can flush down the toilet, and thus keep plastic bags and waste from filling up our landfills. (www.flushadoo.com). I don't know if this is true or not. Do any of you dog-owners have any experience with Flushadoo poop bags?

Its not a magic bullet - since the poop and the bag end up SOMEWHERE. However, a sewer treatment plant probably has bacteria to eat it and filters and whatnot so you're good. I'd be worried that you might clog up the toilet, if it was a big bag of it.

To the poster worried about dog poop in the oceans, what about all the whale poop that would be there either way?

One of the worst things about owning a dog is cleaning up dog poop. If you have a six-week-old puppy in the house, you've got a creature who has no idea about picking a place to "go." All the same, dogs are on your side in house training, because they don't like to live in their own filth. Here are three tips to use clicker training to make dog house training go as quickly as possible.

First, take your puppy to his potty place immediately after waking and after meals. These are the times when the puppy is most likely to have to go. Stay with him for a few minutes and reward him when he does his business. If you're using clicker training, click when he squats and reward when he's done.

If he's not ready to go just yet, give him some more time. But always watch for signs -- walking in circles, a certain kind of sniffing around -- that it's time. You'll get the hang of it as you watch your dog's day-to-day behavior. And then always click when he does a behavior you want him to repeat and use a reward of a happy voice and perhaps a treat.

Second, designate a potty place for the dog. If that's outside, you might want to designate a part of the yard specifically for your dog's "business." You'll want to clean it frequently, because they don't like to walk through their waste, but it's one way to narrow the area that needs to be cleaned.

If the potty place is inside, tape down an oven liner or a pet training pad on an easily cleaned space of floor and reward your puppy for going there. As the dog gets older and is more able to control his bladder and and bowel movements, you can move the potty place outside. You can put away the clicker when your dog learns a behavior and begin clicker training again when you want to teach a new behavior.

Finally, don't punish the dog for getting it wrong. Just help them get it right. Once upon a time, the common wisdom advised dog owners to rub the dog's nose in his excrement. This is cruel and pointless. By the time he is finished with his bowel movement, he has no clue why you're doing this to him.

If you just help them get it right, they will succeed much sooner. Dogs are creatures of habit, and if you can get them to succeed -- and reward their success -- they'll be more than happy to get it right in the future. Clicker training helps the dog understand exactly what you want him to do and know exactly what he's being rewarded for.

Your dog has a deep instinctive desire -- which he shares with wolves -- to keep their waste out of their living space, so he really is on your side in this. He also wants to please you. You can use clicker training to help make your dog a welcome companion around your house.

JV Bear trained her first dog when she was 8 years old by the "demonstration method," which she made up (and recommends only if you're 8 and spend hours a day with nothing to do but hang out with the dog). She has owned at least one dog, usually two, throughout her adult life and recommends clicker training from her own experience.
