Shannon Peterson does not like to clean up after her two dogs, so when she saw someone on Craigslist was offering to pick up dog poop for a weekly fee per dog, she called him. The man, a recently-unemployed, former pet store owner, had decided to take control over his jobless situation. He now scoops poop to make ends meet.

Frost was unable to gather enough funds to start a new business and stated that the recession hit him hard. However, he didn’t let that fact stop him. In fact, his gumption is downright refreshing.

"I said, well I could go start picking up dog poop. There's not a lot of people in town that do that."

Damn strait, Jeff!

Frost charges eight dollars for a one-time weekly cleaning for each dog, ten dollars if you’d like him to pick up poop twice. He even spritzes some sanitizing yardpourri on your assaulted lawn at no extra charge. If you’d like your dog’s nails clipped, or if you’d like it walked or to be baby-sat, Frost offers these services, too. In fact, if you have a horse, he’ll even pick up its poop – for a slightly larger fee.

He now has ten clients and hopes for more. In fact, this entropooneur would like to have enough dog owners on his route giving him the business from the business end of their dogs so that he can hire employees; this way he can increase the area that he can serve.

His website, poopbegone.biz, offer 100% satisfaction guaranteed and a free week for new customers. He has other neat features on his site. For one, he offers pet waste stations from Dogipot to the public. Parts of the site aren’t filled in yet, but it seems that he will deliver this waste basket/receptacle that has a doggie stick figure sign and baggie dispenser on top of it to the area of one's choosing. He also has an Amber Alert banner that runs along the top of each page. That's a nice touch.

It’s great to see someone who wants to work so badly that he’ll pick up dog poop instead of doing nothing. Our hats are off to you, Jeff Frost. You are most definitely one of us!
