       BACK GROUND OF INVENTION 
       [0023]    Today many States and cities have leash laws requiring pets must remain on a Leash in public, at all times. To keep our environment clean and healthy, there are also laws that require pet owners to clean up their pet waste, if the later is not followed, large fines are imposed. 
         [0024]    The art of a solution has been sought after for years, regarding the retrieving and handling of pet waste. Up to date the most widely used way to retrieve pet waste is by hand, with the use of a plastic bag. There seems to be many solutions developed for carrying these empty plastic bags on a leash, however, very few have been developed to transport the filled plastic bags, once retrieved. 
         [0025]    A portion of the pet waste that is actually being collected today in public, in plastic bags, which have no easy way to transport, are being thrown off to the side of the trail or street, thus turning into litter, or the pet owner is just not picking up the waste at all, thus creating an environmental hazard. 
         [0026]    The alternatives for transporting pet waste on a leash today are made of small fabric containers, which are bulky. The problems with such containers are, 1, you are to wrestle a filled bag of waste into a small compartment, thus creating a situation, in which hands are in contact with the pet waste bag, 2, then you are to carry, the filled bag of waste on the leash along with the bulky container in which the pet waste is housed, and 3, a health hazard arises when you are to retrieve the pet waste bag out of the container to dispose of it. 
         [0027]    Hence, all persons owning and walking a pet is in need of a solution to transport filled bags of waste easily, cleanly and effectively to proper disposal. The present invention provides a solution to transport pet waste on a leash, hands free, providing an easy to use, light weight solution that may very well encourage all pet owners who own it, to clean up pet waste and transport it for proper disposal. 
       SUMMARY OF INVENTION 
       [0028]    In view of the forgoing, the main objective of this invention is for the transportation of filled bags of pet waste, on an apparatus used to walk or restrain a animal. A Significant advantage of a pet leash in accordance with the invention is that it obviates the need to retrieve, transport and dispose of filled bags of waste properly. 
         [0029]    More particularly an object of the invention is to provide the user with an all in one apparatus the above type, that can carry empty plastic bags, keys, cell phone, money that is adapted with an clip mechanism or mechanisms for light weight, non bulky, transportation of filled bags pet waste. 
         [0030]    This invention is directed to satisfy the need for a simple solution to transport filled bags of pet waste efficiently, cleanly, hands free, on a pet leash to ensure proper disposal.
