Mint Poop Pocket: How to Refill and Use It on Walks

Learn how to refill your mint poop pocket and use it on walks. This step-by-step guide covers attaching to a lead, storing bags, and avoiding common mistakes.
Quick answer
Refill your mint poop pocket by tying a knot in a used bag and slipping it into the pocket, then attach the pocket to your lead before you head out. Check the attachment point and bag supply before every walk to avoid mid-walk fumbling.
Why the mint pocket works differently from a standard holder
A standard dog poop bag holder usually clips to a lead and dispenses fresh bags from a roll. The PupClub Poop Pocket is designed to carry used bags after you tie a knot at the top, so you are not stuck carrying a dangling bag for the rest of the walk. That difference matters for dog waste bag storage: you need to plan for both fresh bags and the used one.
Because the pocket holds used bags, refilling it is not about threading a new roll. It is about making sure the pocket is empty and clean before you add a fresh supply of unused bags for the next walk. If you treat it like a dispenser, you will likely overstuff it or forget to clear it out.
When a pocket is the better choice, and when it is not
The pocket suits walkers who dislike carrying a knotted bag in their hand or tying it to the lead handle. It also helps if you walk in areas without nearby bins and need to store waste until you find one. However, if you prefer a holder that dispenses bags one-handed from a roll, a standard holder may be faster for you.
One honest trade-off: a pocket adds a small amount of bulk to your lead setup compared with a slim roll holder. If you use a lightweight lead and want the absolute minimum attached, test the pocket on a short walk first to see how it feels.
How to refill and use your mint poop pocket step by step
- Empty and check the pocket: Before refilling, turn the pocket upside down and remove any used bags or debris. Wipe the inside with a damp cloth if needed and let it dry completely. A damp pocket can make fresh bags stick together, so always dry it before refilling.
- Load fresh bags for the walk: Place a small supply of unused poop bags into the pocket. Do not overfill; leave enough room to add a knotted used bag later. Overstuffing makes it hard to close the pocket and defeats the purpose of quick storage.
- Attach the pocket to your lead: Clip or loop the pocket onto your lead handle or a D-ring near the handle. Make sure it hangs securely and does not swing into your dog’s legs. Test the attachment by giving it a gentle tug before you start walking.
- Use a bag and knot it: When your dog goes, pick up the waste with a fresh bag, tie a knot at the top, and slip the knotted bag into the pocket. Knotting the bag first keeps odors in and prevents leaks inside the pocket.
- Empty at the end of the walk: Dispose of the used bag in a bin as soon as you find one, then empty any remaining fresh bags and store them separately. Leaving a used bag in the pocket between walks can cause odors and make the next refill unpleasant.
