Nicknamed "Civic Doody" projects, several concepts were developed to encourage proper cleanup behavior and remove some of the stigma of walking around with loaded waste baggies. The Poo Porter was developed and sold through PetCo and online retail in 2010-2011. A washable ABS pop-open triggered container was both waste baggie dispenser and used baggie storage combined with a handy leash carabiner attachment.
Stuff'n Go, Concept, Design, Project Development/Management 2010. The project is a second gen build of a pet management tool designed for keeping all things needed for outdoor trekking. The dual-sided container acts as a waste bag dispenser with an opposite expandable side capable of hold treats, toys, keys etc or, if needed, acts as a used waste bag container when disposal isn't an immediate option. The container also is structured to support two carabiners for accessories and clipping a leash for walking your pet.
