* Two in ten dog owners own two dogs.
* One in ten dog owners own three or more dogs.
* In Baby Boomer households where there are no children under 18 years of age, more dogs are owned on average (two).
* There are over 63 million dogs in the US.
* The average dog leaves its owners 23 "presents" per week.
* 30 million US households have at least one dog and not one of these households enjoys cleaning up after it!
* Our first franchise (company owned) has over 3,000 clients in the Dallas Fort Worth Area of Texas and consistently serves several thousand pets and their owners each week.

* According to the U.S. Department of Commerce:
o Although only 8% of businesses are franchises, they represent 40% of all retail sales in the U.S.
o Proven methods are often better than trial and error.
o A franchise is usually easier to sell and has a higher value than an independent business.
