Question 1

No matter what I do, the bag drags through some poop and gets dirty on the outside. Is there a way to overcome this?

Hi, thank you for your question. This is Alec, the inventor of the GoGo Stik cleanup tools. Let me see if I can understand and help answer this question.  To best see what I'm talking about please take a look at these very good videos that demonstrate how to properly use the GoGo Stik in scooping. (below)

The first thing is not all poops are the same, right? Some are hard some and some are soft. Some are new, and some may be on the lawn a few hours or days which make them dried out or hard.  You have seen that the softer ones will be the ones that you need to be a little more careful with, especially if your dog is sick and has a really messy one. See the required 1st video below for the technique I use in this situation. You can use the front of the shovel blade to scrape the grass surface.

The key to a getting the job done in the cleanest way is to angle the the tool such that the shovel blade is forced under the front edge of your target. Pick up parts of the target that slide into the bag. Then repeat this as you do the job with a few scoops rather than trying to do the job all in one scoop. That way, only the top front of the bag gets contaminated rather than dragging the whole bag through it.

No matter what, always take care to remove the bag with the handles and avoid the front top of the bag. Fortunately, that front part of the outside of the bag is the only part that is contaminated.
