Hello, Patch Pet Lovers!
I'm sharing a blog post I wrote on PetsitUSA, in an attempt to spread awareness to help prevent the cause of daily deaths to pets. Sadly, every one of these tragic deaths was easily avoidable!!!
Included in the post is a link to sign a petition demanding Frito Lays to simply add a warning label on their products.
SINCE WRITING THE BLOG, THREE (3) MORE DOGS HAVE DIED IN JUST A FEW DAYS!!!
Are you aware of the suffocation threat Frito Lays and snack bags pose to your dogs?

Dogs are dying daily, and it CAN happen to your beloved pet… to any of our pets!!!!
Be sure to cut the top and bottom of the bag off completely before throwing it away, and be certain snack bags are never left anywhere your pet may have access to one… not even an unaccessible location! Hide them up above in a closed cabinet or pantry, out of sight and smell.

When a dog puts their head into the bag and begins to breath, a vacuum seal is created preventing them from removing the bag.
I just received notice of the fourth doggie this week — rather, the fourth owner whom has come forward and brought the unfortunate news to Prevent Pet Suffocation’s attention, sharing their dog has died as the result of suffocating in a Frito Lays bag or similar snack bag. Last week a dog suffocated with their head stuck in a plastic animal cracker container. The numbers are increasing rapidly, and, most likely, there have been many other unreported deaths.
Visit Prevent Pet Suffocation’s Facebook page and read the stories… so extremely sad! More importantly, please go to their web site and sign the petition to have warning notices printed on the bags!!!
The original article appeared on MADMIKESAMERICA… after reading Bonnie’s heartbreaking experience, I’ve been following Prevent Pet Suffocation and helping spread awareness by sharing her story about Blue, as well as the horrific posts from many devastated pet parents, in an attempt to save other beloved pets’ lives.
Thank you, Bonnie Odem Harlan, for bringing awareness to pet parents, and your continued diligent efforts…
