I never thought I'd describe a poop bag holder as adorable. And yet...here we are.
Anthropologie has somehow taken one of the least glamorous parts of having a dog and turned it into something that's genuinely cute. Their bone shaped Dog Waste Bag Holder comes decked out with the kind of whimsical charms you'd expect from the retailer, including a tiny squirrel, a radish, a slice of pie and beads. It's delightfully ridiculous in the best possible way, and I kind of love that someone decided dog poop deserved a little accessorizing.
Anthropologie Novelty Waste Bag Holder with Charms, $26, Anthropologie
The silicone holder comes with a roll of waste bags already inside, so it's ready to clip onto your leash, purse, keys, or backpack right away. The sturdy keychain makes it easy to grab whenever you're heading out the door, and because it's actually cute, you might be less likely to forget it hanging by the door.
Let's be honest... there's nothing worse than getting halfway through a walk and realizing you forgot poop bags.

Well...except pretending you didn't notice your dog pooped.
Please don't be that person.
Picking up after your dog helps keep neighborhoods cleaner, prevents the spread of parasites and bacteria, and is simply part of being a considerate neighbor. One small favor I'd also ask? Don't toss your tied off waste bags into someone else's trash can unless they've given you permission. Carry them home or dispose of them in a public trash bin if one is available. It's a small courtesy that goes a long way.
Who Needs This?
Pretty much anyone who has ever shoved a crumpled roll of poop bags into a coat pocket, only to spend five minutes digging for them while their dog proudly squats in front of an audience.
Or anyone who's clipped a plain plastic dispenser onto the leash and thought, "Well...that's functional, I guess."
This little Anthropologie accessory proves practical doesn't have to be boring.
Will it make picking up dog poop fun?
No.
Will it make you smile every time you see a tiny squirrel, a radish and a slice of pie dangling from your keys?
Honestly...I think it just might.
