The PS Brothers by Maribeth Boelts

Shawn and Russell are the PS Brothers.  They both have home lives that are less than ideal, and they both are picked on at school.  They decide that they need a big, mean dog to defend them and to love.  All is well and good, except they have no money and dogs are expensive.  They decide the quickest way to earn money is to form their own business -- cleaning up dog waste or scooping poop, and so the P(oop) S(coop) Brothers business was born.  Next item of business for the boys is to find a dog and that's where the story takes off.  They find a dog, but they also find much more than they bargained for...including danger.
