Poop scooping and packaging assembly

A technique making use of a loop having a handle, a wand and a rectangular plastic-film bag having an open end and a closed end to scoop up and package poop deposited by an animal on a surface comprising the steps of:

• (a) manually inserting the loop and the wand through the open end into the bag so that they occupy positions adjacent the sides of the bag and are spaced from each other by a distance sufficient to permit manipulation of the wand relative to the loop, the loop handle being held in one hand of the user and the wand in the other hand;
• (b) holding the open end of the bag with the fingers of the same hands which hold the handle of the loop and the wand so as to retain the loop and wand within the bag while advancing the closed end of the bag along the surface toward the poop;
• (c) manipulating the bag-covered wand so as to place the poop over an outside surface of the bag to occupy a region within the confines of the bag-covered loop and to depress this region to form a pocket depending from the loop;
• and
• (d) inverting the bag over the pocket to place the poop inside the bag and thereby create a disposable package.
