Of wealth and waste

There must be a whole lot of dogs in Dallas, and a whole lot of dog owners who would prefer not to pick up after them. A Dallas-based company called Pet Butler ended 2006 with revenues of $2 million. This company's business plan (its slogan is " #1 in the #2 business") is pretty simple: for a weekly fee, Pet Butler employees pick up the poop, for businesses, parks and private clients. It's the official pet waste remover of the Texas Rangers and Oakland Athletics.
