Heat Strokecan occur inless than 15 minutes if your pet is

   outside in the yard in full sun with no shade available!

Running into a store for "just a minute" can be FATAL FOR YOUR CHILD OR PET LEFT IN A CAR EVEN WITH CRACKED WINDOWS!

*  We have reached 90 F, so in 10 minutesit will be 109 F in

    your car, which is likely to be deadly to a pet or child.

Bella Jack stopped eating for several days.  She was so tired, and struggling to breathe.  It is with very heavy hearts that we had to say good-bye to Bella Jack on June 14th, and let her find rest over the Rainbow Bridge.

Thank you to all of her loyal supporters who loved her as much as we did.  She will ever be in our hearts & memories.
