Alec Beaton, an inventor from East Syracuse, has created a “clean, quick and economical” any-bag solution for total yard pet cleanup in minutes. His invention will be exhibited at Invent Help’s INPEX, America’s Largest Invention Trade Show, from June 7 to 9 just outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Beaton’s invention, called “GoGo Stik, The Totally Clean Pooper Scooper,” is durable, strong and lightweight with an adjustable length aluminum handle. It offers a nice handle grip, is symmetrically balanced for easy handling and can be hung up when not in use. The head of the GoGo Stik features a patented dual-edged blade and bag attachment system which provides great flexibility for attaching bags of many different styles and sizes.
It is the only patented super scooper that has two shovel-type blades for fast and clean pickups. Use the rounded blade for grass, sand, snow or other uneven surfaces. Use the straight blade for flat walk surfaces. For more information, please visit gogostik.com.
Beaton said he was inspired to create his invention after his wife acquired a few dog companions during a brief encounter with breast cancer.
“I assumed the role of the cleanup and caretaker of these beloved friends,” said Beaton. “I soon realized what a dreadful daily task awaited me every day. I found I couldn’t deal with handling pet waste on walks or cleaning the yard. It was important to keep the yard clean daily so that the dogs wouldn’t track anything into the house. Other devices failed to meet my needs. Being an engineer, I created a wish list of all the benefits that I wanted in a new tool that I would develop. After a few years of prototypes and tweaking, the GoGo Stik, The Totally Clean Pooper Scooper was born.”
Recently, the inventor has collaborated with local organizations, such as SCORE, SSIC and the Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University.
Beaton is exhibiting at INPEX with the hopes of meeting manufacturers, distributors, venture capitalists, licensors and importer/exporters.
