Maybe cities should train rescue dogs like I read (a long time ago) that countries like Switzerland and Sweden do. I wonder how Canada handles those situations, they get even colder? And , of course, Alaska where it must be STAY INSIDE or die.
I read about the deaths in Upstate NY....I didn't read that they had tripled their alcohol intake.
