What a great contest, so happy it’s not “the most likes wins” contest! I sure love Earth Rated bags!!! Keeping my paws crossed I win!!! 🙂

I can’t stand the “vote for your favorite” contests, so I don’t do them!

Great idea! I’m giving an “earth day” lecture next week, too, on some earth friendly products for pets. Will take a look at these, I wasn’t familiar with them.
Amanda says
That’s fantastic! I’m writing a separate post about how to be a sustainable pet parent, and these bags are a part of it!

Great contest. What always drives me bananas is when we went through the trails and there were full poop bags along the path. If you’re going to leave it there, WHY put it in a bag first? Never figured that one out.
Amanda says
Maybe they said to themselves “I’ll pick this up on my way back!” I’ve seen that before also, especially on hikes.
Carol says
Great contest! Gotta get my entry in pronto!!
Rachel Sheppard says
