Bark Buckle UP Aims To Get Pet Oxygen Masks

firedog1001.jpg

Annually, an estimated 500,000 pets are affected by fires in the United States. Firefighters can often save a pet's life, if they have the right equipment.

October is National Fire Safety Month and marks the launch of “BARK 10-4”, a campaign by Bark Buckle UP, to help fire departments nationwide obtain much needed pet oxygen masks. These masks work with dogs, cats and other animals.

A local New York City Firefighter with Bark Buckle UP Pet Safety team member and pets stopped by the studio to demonstrate the use of oxygen masks.
