Thank you, Dave. We have many of these postcards for all to have and hand out for free to raise awareness. We also have small thermometers to gauge temps inside the vehicle. We are hoping this will save some of our critter's lives by creating awareness.

ReplySome dogs are not as sensitive as others, for sure. I had a dog that acquired noise sensitivity as she got older.

ReplyGreat article, Laurie! Thank you for uncovering some of the dreadful truths of puppy mills. Puppy mills are also commonly located in the Midwest where current legislation is in the works to limit the amount of dogs that can be at a specific location to minimize the existence of puppy mills. Legitimate breeders breed carefully, care where their puppies go, and give guidance throughout the dog's life. Puppy mills will sell the puppies to distributors (that ultimately end up in puppy selling pet stores) and/or brokers for the sake of money, treating the puppy as a commodity, not caring about the wellness of the animal.

ReplyGreat question. Cooked or raw are both toxic when eaten in large enough amounts. Toxic levels are proportionate to the animal's weight and sensitivity to, Thiosulphate , which is the reactive chemical.

Hello S. Tadik,
I agree that cleaning up after your dog is a responsible dog owner thing to do. Sometimes it happens that the owner may not have a bag to pick up with - either they forget or just get caught off guard. There are lots of little inexpensive bag holder choices that attach to leashes. Village Critter Outfitter has many choices and colors so no one can get caught off guard again. Hope this helps.
