Abstract

An organizer for assisting a user when taking a dog for a walk. The organizer has an adjustable belt with an interlocking buckle and an attached pouch. The pouch has a top lid and front, left and right surfaces. The lid closes by means of a top zipper. A hook for tethering the dog is permanently affixed to the left surface. The user can insert a box of plastic bags in a bag compartment inside a side zipper in the left surface and dispense the bags through an elongated slot in the front surface to collect dog waste. Also, the pouch has separate compartments for a leash and other accessories. A solar energy panel is located on the lid and is in communication with a light-emitting diode. The diode can either be activated by opening the lid or via a switch mounted onto the right surface.
