    Abstract: A pet refuse collection device includes a container body having an interior formed by a base and a surrounding sidewall. A movable lid encloses the interior. A scoop member is secured to either the container body or the lid so that, when the lid is closed, the scoop member is enclosed in the interior of the container body. A handle may be provided on the container body. In one embodiment, the scoop member is formed as an extension of the container body, for example, as a tongue-like extension, and in another embodiment the scoop member is a spoon-like member having its handle secured to the lid. The lid may be pivotally attached to the container body and may be spring biased to an open position. A latch can be used to retain the lid in the closed position.
