Business Assignment
Wanda is horrified when she sees a news report that some dog treats have been recalled because they have made some dogs get sick and even die. Wanda is very careful about her ingredients and only uses chicken, lamb, and bison that come from sustainable farms. Still, these headlines make her nervous. What if her dog treats make someone's dog sick? What if a batch of her Chicken Cuties is somehow contaminated and a dog dies from eating them?
