I need a scoop/rake to pick up rabbit poo out of our yard. My 9 & 11 yr old dogs have suddenly started to eat it. Weird. Will this work?

I have owned rabbits for several years. This scoops will absolutely NOT work... It sounds like you need a rake of some kind.

This is an awesome product of good quality. However, it may be a big large for the rabbit droppings. The tension on it is very strong and for medium to large dogs it works great. I recommend getting something smaller but make sure it closes completely as the rabbit droppings may fall through.

It will work but it is made for larger poop like a very big dog. It is the largest pooper scooper I have ever seen. I dont think you really need something so big. But it will work. It is all metal and the teeth in the scoop are close together. So it should work for a rabbit.

Yes, I have tried many scoopers over the years for my dogs and this is neatest and easiest I've ever used!

I think it will because the "jaws" close tight together...it scoops everything my nine dogs can put out , weather it is runny or like a brick - good luck but I think you will love it and it will work just fine.

Though it sounds gross, bury the dogs' droppings around the landscaped areas. The dogs will not dig there. I have used this method with large and small dogs and it works like a charm--not to mention the added benefit of solving the land mine disposal problem!

i would safely say yes. I would also recommend that ideally you place an appropriate sized plastic bag over the jaws (i.e. place the pooper in the plastic bag), slightly open the jaws and tuck about an inch of the bag inside. Then you open the jaws over the "load" and when you release, if properly placed, you can pick up the load cleanly and completely. And I do agree it's the best one I've had so far.

I can't say yes or no. I was having a rabbit and ground hog problem, and for those animals it did work. Unfortunately, I soon ran into a problem with a "herd" or field mice that decided to ravage my garden. I can't say one or or another if the product attracted the mice, but who knows for sure.

I stopped using the scoop and started using dog poop bags (BioBags) - this way I can pull out the poo with a large handful of the litter if necessary. The litter stays MUCH cleaner that way. I do feel a prey model diet so my cat poops at most 1x every other day and for the most part they are well formed so that makes it much easier too.

I am using it for my rabbit now. I just bought a corner regular litter box and put the pellets right in there. She took to it immediately. Its been a week now and I dont smell a thing. I leave the solids in there because they are dry and have no odor anyway. I will just dump it when it starts smelling.

Yes, it is different in the fact that it has an opening cut out of it so the poo can be scooped into a bag beneath as a catch. I you could probably cut a portion out of the normal tray, and it would probably work the same way

Hi Norma here, I use this blower on my English angora rabbits, and use it as a vacuum also for rabbit grooming. I don't see why it wouldn't work on a dog as well. I LOVE this blower, it is dependable and sturdy. It is a work horse and I can't say enough good things about it. If it ever quit I would buy the exact same item again. Hope I have helped.

If used properly this would no more attract rodents than your regular sewage drain attracts rodents. We have had this in use for over a year with 3 large dogs and creates a "poo station" next to the drain with 6-12x12 pavers where we keep a 5 gallon bucket and the waste scoopers. We also have a spigot that is about 2 feet from the station and we use a 6 foot hose and run it the whole time we are picking up dog waste. The 5 gallon bucket is critical if you don't pick up your waste before it dries up. We put the waste in the bucket and fill with water and let it sit to soften before dumping down the Doo Drain.

Dear Shelly,I am not sure. Sounds like your doggies fur is very strong and possibly course.You would need the strongest rake sold. Not sure if this one is strong enough. It might be worth a try. Siva

I have alot of rabbits but never set my sights on using this trap to catch them (caught skunks and Racoons) if you use this for rabbits use Kale (red or green) as bait should work great

I have never used this for rabbits but did have a rabbit that used a regular litter box. My suggestion would be to buy just a bag of the pellets and make sure the rabbit does not try to chew on them and uses the box normally. If so, this system would be ideal. Scooping their solids might be a bit challenging as their solids are very similar in size and shape to the pellets. I cannot say how much we are pleased with ours. The urine collection system is unlike any other and it truly works. Best of luck!

i don't have rabbits, but i do have a dog that eats milk bones and is constantly leaving broken little pieces around and it does pick those up.

Hi, As far as I know it does not use plastic bags (there is no way to secure a bag to the scooper). Since I use it in the back of my house on the grass, I store the pooper scooper outdoors, so I just use the hose to clean it. I like the fact that it is taller than other pooper scoopers and has a good "spring action" to pick up the poop. I've ordered several of these over the years because some of the "teeth" on the bottom break off (not sure if it is because I leave it outdoors, or I sometimes accidently pick up a little rock). With 3 dogs, I would say overall it does work well, I just wish it was made of a stronger plastic or material so the "teeth" would break.

Well it actually works beautifully for picking up a big pile of poop from my boxer. It opens wide and grabs the mess and the spring is strong enough to grab and close until it can be thrown away somewhere else. In my case a pasture. Hope this helps.

Stiff To Pick Up.I Would Think It would WOfork Better As Rabbit Hair IS Softer. We Used It On Domestic ShorT Hair And It Was Too Stuff

I am not sure but my guess is no. This device works by sending small vibrations through the ground which the underground animals do not like but would not affect animals on the ground - like rabbits.
