  Use biodegradable dog waste bags to pick up your dog's droppings and throw it in the trash. After all, you're helping the environment as well as cleaning up your dog.
  Unfortunately, there are unspoken rules in the world of makers of biodegradable poop bags. Some dog bag marketers "may use their unqualified 'biodegradable' claims to deceive consumers." Thanks to unregulated guidelines and misleading packaging, the poop bags you use may not be as environmentally friendly as they seem.

  Biodegradable dog waste bags can be misleading
  International standards set the level at which plastics are biodegradable, and not all poop bags degrade quickly or safely according to those standards. So what should responsible dog owners do? Is there something like a poop bag that's good for the environment? We've learned about eco-friendly poop bags and how to use them.
  Many poop bags that claim to be earth-friendly or biodegradable don't actually decompose within a year, and some don't degrade at all. But it's not necessarily the poo bag's fault. Even the best, most scientifically proven biodegradable plastics don't degrade in landfills. To get the best results from eco-friendly poo bags, you must dispose of them properly.
  
  Dealing with biodegradable dog waste bags
  It's not how you scoop shit that matters, it's how you throw it away. Some extra work is needed to maximize the environmental friendliness of poo bags.
  Don't throw poop bags in regular trash cans, they end up in landfills.
  Do not put them in your home garden compost, as animal waste contains pathogens that can be harmful to humans.
  Do not put them in municipal yard bins as most municipal composting facilities do not allow pet waste
  In order for biodegradable poop bags to work effectively, they need to be handled properly.
  
  Make full use of biodegradable dog waste bags
  Use trash bags only for dog droppings. There are a variety of commercial options on the market, such as Hyde, but you can also make your own using supplies provided by local home and garden shops. While pet waste compost should not be used on edible plants, it can be an important fertilizer for decorating your garden!
  Rinse it. Yes, depending on where you live, you can flush dog poop out of the bag and straight down the toilet, or put it in a water-soluble garbage bag. Be sure to check your municipal sewage guidelines, triple check your bag for correctness, and never flush pet waste into your septic tank.
  Bury it. This option works best if you live in a rural area away from your house. 
  Of course, you can give up bags altogether. Using a hand shovel or spade to transfer dog waste from the ground to a compost bin or trash can may be the most environmentally friendly option. But for people who live and work in densely populated areas, biodegradable dog waste bags are the best option.
  
  Hyde's biodegradable dog waste bags are made from resins derived from plants, vegetable oils and compostable polymers, and completely decompose under the right conditions. In addition, we offer customizable shopping bags to make supermarkets and shopping greener.
