8 AM  Colossal Ignorance   www.dinpoop.com Keegan Dyer Mass majority of population including pet owners are in denial about serious health risks that dog waste can pose. They are equally clueless about disinfectants chemistry and efficacy.

There is a desperate need to raise awareness among Dog Owners, Parents, Children, Adults, as well as Pet Services Professionals all across the country!
