The Dilemma of Dog Waste, and What to Do About it

The contamination of the world's water supply by dog feces
This article by USA Today shows dog waste to be a disease-bearing, toxic pollutant that is already at significant levels and growing ever-more problematic as it increasingly fouls the world's water supply.
