The company is called Flush Doggy.

There are flushable dog poop bags. The best answer probably because dog poop can get treated just as your poop is.

FlushDoggy, is a fully biodegradable, flushable(water soluble) dog waste bag that is very eco-friendly.

Dog doodies are best to be flushed down the toilet and degrade naturally , just as our own doodies. Stop destroying our earth and start educating the public, one poop at a time. Be a responsible owner and go green for our pets.

…These results suggest that not all oxo-biodegradable bags are created equal and offers additional support for developing clear standards and third-party verification as discussed above. Clearly, more research will be required on the recyclability of oxo-biodgradable bags available in the B.C. marketplace if they are expected to enter the conventional plastic recycling stream.

Use of Non‐Renewable Resources without Recovery -
A final concern about oxo-biodegradable bags is that the product is composed of non-renewable, fossil fuel-based inputs and there is little difference in regards to energy-and
resource-use when compared with conventional disposable plastic grocery bags.

If oxo-biodegradable bags are meant to break down in a landfill environment, as they are largely promoted as doing, the products will not be recovered through recycling,
resulting in a loss of resources in the same way these resources are lost through the currently used disposable plastic bags.

*In a nutshell oxo bags and disposable bags are manufactured using the same non-renewable fossil fuel based machinery and the oxo bags can not be recovered through recycling.

I have seen oxomaterials break down. I have had some film exposed to sunlight on an aging board for two years and it is practically dust now. If it were not contained in a non-oxo plastic envelope, it would have blown away months ago. I’ve had another roll of the same material in my cool dark garage during the same time and it looks fine. I’m sorry they didn’t break down in Australia. Having also lived there, I doubt they had it sitting in the sun during the summer. However, if it was buried in a landfill, I will grant that you would probably not see much difference in a year or two.

The thing with all the claims, on both sides, is that you hardly ever get the full story. The starch based guys have a very strong marketing machine that has spent as much on hurting oxo as they have on promoting pla.

Salesmen sometime overstate what the product will do. When the product doesn’t live up to the expectations, it’s easy to jump on board and say the technology doesn’t work.

I’ve been in the plastic industry for over 25 years and I remember when adding starch to plastic was supposed to be the great way to make it biodegradable. All it did was make confetti out of it. Now I see the starch guys saying the same thing about oxo. It’s not the same technology at all.

Since oxo films are cost competitive with conventional plastics and perform just as well, what’s not to like?
