Abstract: The animal feces collecting device comprises a harness for releasably attaching the collecting device to an animal, at least one arm defining a proximal end pivotally attached to the harness and a distal free end opposite the proximal end, a feces collecting unit carried by the arm at the distal end thereof, and an attachment member carried by the harness. The arm is pivotable between an operative position in which the arm clears the harness and is disengaged from the attachment member for positioning the arm distal end and the feces collecting unit adjacent to the animal's anus, and a stored position in which the arm is pivoted back against the attachment member to attach the arm to the attachment member and for positioning the arm distal end spacedly away from the animal's anus.
