Saving Cats and Dogs

Miami-Dade firefighters now have the tools not only to save the lives of people, but their pets as well. No, we aren't talking about a sturdy ladder to get old whiskers down from that palm tree.

The masks are for dogs and cats and can be fit over their noses and mouths. They come in three different sizes.
