BreezeGuard

BreezeGuard is an interesting idea for dogs who love to stick their heads out the window of your car. I’m not sure if it’s legal in all states to have something like that sticking out from the side of you car though. (Our dog Saffron rides in her own special car harness when in the car, so she doesn’t put her head out the window.)

Dog Owners Protesting in Beijing

Authorities aren’t just enforcing the one dog per family rule in China. Apparently they are also culling all large breed dogs and any dog over 14 inches. The crackdown pushed 500 people to protest in Beijing while surrounded by police and while plain clothes police circulated in the crowd. Eighteen people were detained for questioning.
