...how dog owners clear up after their pets if the poo is not entirely solid?
Not a nice question but I've seen a few sloppy numbers recently which couldn't have been picked up with an inside-out carrier bag.
Is there any kind of device for cleaning up this kind of mess? Or shall I go on Dragons Den?

I always carried bags, baby wipes and tissues - bag first, then tissues, then a wipe over - clean :)

You just have to get a bag round it and scoop.

It does feel gross (and warm) but got to be done :)

Not sure if you mean that you wipe your dogs bum or the pavement (or both) but you sound like a very responsible dog owner all the same.

Thankfully my dog has never pooed on the pavement, which means that if it's a bit soggy, I've been able to pick up a load of leaves or pull grass out the ground.
