What’s the Best Way to Carry Poo on a Dog Walk?

Let’s be honest: no one enjoys carrying a bag of dog poo.
But if you’re a responsible dog owner (hi, that’s you 👋), it’s just part of the deal.

The problem isn’t picking it up — it’s what to do with it afterwards, especially when the nearest bin is miles away. Swinging bags, stuffed pockets, awkward hand-holding… none of it feels great.

That’s exactly why we designed the Barkley & Fetch Poop Carrier: a simple, hands-free, smell-sealed way to carry dog poo until you reach a bin.


Why a Poop Carrier Is a Game-Changer on Dog Walks

If you’ve ever:

  • Tied a poo bag to the lead and watched it swing about

  • Held it “just for now” and regretted it instantly

  • Stuffed it into a pocket (never again)

…then a dedicated poop carrier will change your walks for the better.

A good poop carrier should:

  • Keep smells sealed in 🚫👃

  • Leave your hands free

  • Attach easily to your walking kit

  • Be easy to clean and reuse

Ours does all of that — without fuss.


The Barkley & Fetch Poop Carrier (aka your walk upgrade)

Our poop carrier is designed and made in-house, just like the rest of our dog-walking gear. It’s practical, lightweight, and thoughtfully made for everyday use.

✨ Key Features

  • Clips on easily
    Comes with a lightweight carabiner clip so you can attach it to your walking bag, lead, or even your belt.

  • Edge-to-edge Velcro closure
    Seals fully shut to help lock in odours, with webbing pull tabs for easy opening (even with cold or muddy hands).

  • Waterproof lining fabric
    Helps contain smells and makes cleaning quick and easy.

  • Two practical sizes

    • Medium – approx 15cm x 15cm
      Ideal for cockapoos, terriers, and smaller dogs

    • Large – approx 18cm x 18cm
      Perfect for Labradors, Great Danes, and enthusiastic poo-producers 😅


How to Use the Barkley & Fetch Poop Carrier

Using it couldn’t be simpler:

  1. Pick up your dog’s poo as normal using a disposable bag and knot it securely

  2. Place the bag inside the poop carrier

  3. Close the Velcro firmly from edge to edge

  4. Clip it onto your walking bag, lead, or belt

  5. Dispose of the poo in the nearest bin on your walk

After each use:

  • Check there’s no soiling

  • Spray inside and out with Febreze (or similar) to keep things fresh


Easy to Clean, Ready for the Next Walk

We recommend:

  • Hand washing at a cool temperature

  • Allowing it to dry naturally

With a little care, your poop carrier will be ready to go again for the next walk — no lingering smells, no awkward carrying.


A Small Thing That Makes Walks Better

Dog walks should be about fresh air, wagging tails, and enjoying time together — not worrying about what you’re carrying.

The Barkley & Fetch Poop Carrier keeps things:

  • Hands-free

  • Discreet

  • Practical

  • And a whole lot more pleasant

Because responsible dog ownership doesn’t have to be uncomfortable 💛
