After using sandwich or freezer bags, I like to turn them inside out, give them a general wipe down and store them. When taking the family dog for a walk, I'll grab one of them and use it as a glove to pick up any doggy messes (poop). Leaving the bag inside out, I pick the "mess" up. I fold the bag back over as I pull my hand out, and them I'm able to seal it. I toss it in the outdoor garbage when I get home.

Oh, how I wish that more people would clean up after their dogs!
They must find it offensive to come face to face and pick up their own dogs waste. Whatever comes out of the dog is the owners responsibility too.
I had suggested earlier that the use of those newspaper bags was great for scooping up the poo. However, you've got me beat by reusing the ziplock bags.
I put all my dog poo down the toilet - saves on flies, maggots in the bin not to
mention the over powering smell that comes from the bin.
Thanks for being a thoughtful recycler.
