Invisible Fence Co. Is donating pet rescue mask kits to local fire departments.

Invisible Fence® Brand is in the business of saving pets' lives, and we strongly believe in programs that not only help keep pets safe in their yards, but safe from other hazards like house fires. Although the number of pets that die in fires is not an official statistic kept by the U.S. Fire Administration, industry web sites and sources have cited that an estimated 40,000 to 150,000 pets die each year in fires; most succumbing to smoke inhalation. In most states, emergency responders are not equipped to deal with the crisis because they lack specially designed pet oxygen masks.
