Title: Pick up and disposal kit for pet ordure

Abstract: An impervious bag formed of plastic or the like and a semirigid foldable band secured around the mouth of the bag. The band has a linear portion which conforms to a ground surface to afford transportation of ordure thereover into the bag. Remote from the linear portion the band defines foldable gripping portions which enables the user to grip the band exterior of the bag and to manipulate the linear portion for efficient and sanitary use. Joined to the linear portion is a second ply which enhances the rigidity thereof, there being a segment joined to the second ply along a perforated line. When the device is marketed and stored the segment forms with the ply an enclosure for the kit and when the segment is removed from the ply by tearing along the perforated line, the segment in conjunction with a rigid handle forms a pusher for transporting the ordure over the linear portion to the bag interior.
