EXTRA-LARGE DOG POOP BAGS IN CHICAGO
Lakefront trails and Montrose Dog Beach mean Chicago's big breeds run hard and go big - your bags should be ready.
BUILT FOR CHICAGO, IL'S BIGGEST DOGS
If you own a large or giant breed in Chicago, you already know standard poop bags just don't cut it. At roughly 9x13 inches and single-ply, they tear, split, and leak the moment a real dog does real business. Big Dog Life makes the fix: The Bosie Bag - a 12x14 inch, extra-thick, leak-proof poop bag built specifically for big dogs.
From daily walks around the neighborhood to off-leash runs at Montrose Dog Beach, Chicago's big-dog owners need supplies that keep up. Our bags are 43.6% bigger than standard, made with 38% plant-based material, and sized so you never have to double- or triple-bag again.
Chicago law - the serious part
KNOW THE RULES BEFORE YOU WALK
The ordinance
Municipal Code § 7-12-420
Requires cleanup of dog waste on public ways, public places, and others' property, with enforcement extending into suburbs and park districts.
Dog waste is classified as a nonpoint-source pollutant - the same category as lawn chemicals and vehicle runoff - which is why cities like Chicago take it seriously. The fix is simple: keep an extra-large, leak-proof bag on you so you're never caught without one.
Ordinance details are provided for general information and may change - confirm current rules with your local municipality.

CHICAGO, IL - GOOD TO KNOW
What's the law on picking up dog poop in Chicago?
Chicago enforces cleanup under Municipal Code § 7-12-420. Requires cleanup of dog waste on public ways, public places, and others' property, with enforcement extending into suburbs and park districts. Fines up to $500. Keeping a reliable, leak-proof bag on you is the easiest way to stay compliant on every walk.
Do you ship extra-large dog poop bags to Chicago, IL?
Yes. Big Dog Life ships The Bosie Bag and every bundle across the U.S., including Chicago, Illinois. Most orders arrive within a few business days so you're never stuck double-bagging on your next walk.
Why do big dogs in Chicago need larger poop bags?
Standard bags are roughly 9x13" and built for small dogs. Large and giant breeds common around Chicago - like Labrador Retrievers and German Shepherds - produce far more waste, so the 12x14" extra-thick Bosie Bag prevents the tears and blowouts that flimsy bags cause.
Are these good for walks at Montrose Dog Beach?
Absolutely. Whether you're at Montrose Dog Beach or just around the block in Chicago, the Bosie Bag's leak-proof, extra-thick design and easy-tie handles make cleanup fast, clean, and dignified - no matter how big the job.
