Ok I have a lab and i need to pick up the feces in an area that has pea rock. Will this be difficult to do without picking up a million rocks as well?

If the feces is above surface level it actually gets just above the surface quite well. Because I was picking up with dirt, leaves, and sticks on the ground. Although a rake and scoop pan might be the.Perfect partner to this with pea rock in the equation.

This may sound gross, but as long as the feces are large, it shouldn't be much of a problem. The smaller the rocks, the more you'll pick up only bc you need to open the claws pretty wide to grab it. You'll still pick up rocks indefinitely. Hope this helps

you wil get some rock if its small..but if you are careful and just grab the edges of the feces this should get it without much. I've had dogs for almost 40 years and this is the BEST tool ever....seriously. I wont ever be without one again...and mine gets a LOT of worktime. I did break one after 2 years (probably using it at 20 degrees below zero F isnt the best thing for it...) but was happy to buy a second!!!

Yes, Definitely! I am assuming the "load" is outside? I use it to "transport" to a designated area in the yard. You wouldn't want to keep the device in the house after picking up the poop, and you do not have to bend down or handle the "load" as with a pick-up baggie.

Yes (generally), but after you've used this product for a week or two, you get the hang of the timing and it's not much at all of an issue. With three dogs (25, 35, and 85 pounds) and a daily pickup, I commonly pick about 6-8 piles before needing to dump them in the container. If you're only looking at piles from an 85 pound dog, I'd get 3-4 successfully before needing too "unload".

separate purchase...by the way you CAN gag this toilet. no problem with human feces, but the dang Mastiff pup will dump on the floor turds that large and toilet paper...have a plunger handy...increasing amount of water in bowl maybe another option

If the rocks are little pebbles, this tiller would probably be fine, but with larger rocks, I would not think this tiller has the power to do the job. However, I will add that I have previously worked soil (farmed for many years) and that I only use this tiller in a small garden patch and it has worked well for me. If your ground is "really" rocky, I would think it might need a bit of preperation; plowing, disking, and raking before using this light weight tiller.I hope this helps.

Yes, our grandson figured it out in a couple of months on how to get it off, but you shouldn't have any problem with your lab. It works great if little fingers don`t get a hold of it.LOL

No. In fact I wish there was a setting to make it stronger. It gets left over food but some turtle waste is too large for it to pick up. Even small gravel won't get sucked up usually.

This is probably not your best bet. It easily picks up cigarette buts, papers and small rocks but the super fine and more heavier items it will either eat the brush or simply not pick it up.

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.

LOL, if you want to pick up the chunks without picking up the chunks, just wet em down and use a wet/dry shop vac with a pickup attachment. You need a good sized shop vac anyhow, for emergencies, when my daughter's commode overflowed, if we hadn't had a 5 gallon shop vac handy, we'd have been up that famous creek. Literally. Great for all kinds of horrible cleaning.

Yes, I believe it more than likely will pick up rabbit poops. I use it primarily on my carpeted stairs to pick up hair and other stuff that accumulates, and it does a pretty good job. I think it would do a better job on slightly larger particles like hay and dry poops, so long as these are not stuck in the rug fibers. If they are stuck, you might have to loosen them.

You will need to set the height, which is easy to do. It should do just fine picking them up.

I'm very impressed with the way this picks up things. It ofcourse is not as good a full size but it does very well on the edges. It acually picks up little limestone rocks that get stuck to shoes from the yard. It should have no problem picking up cherrios.

Very difficult. Lots of parts. And even if you do it once a week it has a ton of slime all over pieces. When we saw the slime my husband asked me if I would drink out of it. I said of course not. So if I wouldn't want to drink out of it than I wouldn't want my cats to drink it. It's seems like a breeding ground for bacteria. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats drinking from it. And that is way too much diarhea to be cleaning if they all got sick. Plus we want healthy animals of course.

Thank you for replying. I have a flowerbed filled in with river rock that I have been having difficulty removing pine needles from. I don't want to get every last one but it looks shabby the way it it.

I have 10 Labs and about a half acre fenced in for them and have used this product in the dead of summer to rid the yard of the urine smell. It works great but I'm convinced it is "Simple Green". It smells just like it and so we used Simple Green also and it works great. But to answer your question about it braking down the hard stuff. I don't think so. I use a shovel in the snow and pick daily. The ones you miss because they are under the snow and now mushy, I use a rake and then the poop scoop. It's something you have to keep after daily.

I guess you could. Never tried it. One thing is that pecans are easier to pick up because they are smooth sided and go into the picker upper easily if the ground is hard. This is a fun item when I get pecans and I look forward to taking the grandchildren along, but it could be a real pain to try to manually clear a field of rocks.
