The Straight Poop Rescue Site of the Week ***** A Word From Frank: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ This is the first issue of The Straight Poop you've received in a few weeks. Why? When you subscribed to The Straight Poop, I promised you that I would take very good care of your email address. I recently discovered that the young man who I had hired to process unsubscription requests had fallen down on the job very badly, and that as a result, many people who had asked not to receive The Straight Poop were still getting it. This is unacceptable to me, so I have been very hard at work for the last few weeks going through all the requests and trying to be sure that they were met before I sent out another issue. 111111111111111111111111111111111111111 The Straight Poop featured WEB SITE NoPuppyMills.com has become an outstanding resource for just about anything you might wish to know on the subject of where dogs come from.
