A Rake for Picking up Animal Waste includes a bow connected to a handle. A waste receiving structure is connected to the bow. The waste receiving structure has a rearward facing leading edge. The bow describes an opening above the rearward facing leading edge through which animal waste may pass. The waste receiving structure may be embodied as multiple tines, or as a receptacle. The rake is configured so that waste is propelled onto the upper surface of the waste receiving structure as the rake is pulled rearwardly by a user in a sweeping motion. In an embodiment having tines, the tines may be provided with a recurve to prevent waste from falling off the tines. In an embodiment having a receptacle, the receptacle may be provided with a weighted plate to assist in penetrating deeply into turf.
