Thanks for letting us know! I’ve fixed that now.

Obviously, not the plastic baggie.

And the need for internal and external parasite control, and whatever other things they ingest. [Mine are extremely healthy and rarely if ever need pesticides, antibiotics, thyroid medications, pain killers etc.] But most dogs do, so any compost that includes dog poop is about as far opposite on the spectrum as you can get from organic.

Is a word missing? I don’t believe the author meant 6.5 million tons but 6.5 tons definitely seems too low. Other than that, definitely an interesting problem! Thank you for this interesting article.
