⚠️🚙⚠️ Despite the warnings, hundreds of dogs in the U.S. die every year after being left in a hot car. Someone you know may need to read this very important message. ⚠️🚙⚠️

SIX MINUTES is all it takes for a dog to overheat in a hot car.

Your dog could suffer serious injury or die in a matter of minutes if left alone in a car.

• The temperature inside a closed vehicle left in the sun can double within 12 minutes.

• At least 75% of the temperature increase in a closed vehicle occurs within 5 minutes of closing the vehicle, and at least 89% of the temperature increase occurs within 15 minutes of closing the vehicle.

• Temperatures exceeding 104˚ F can lead to death or serious injury for the occupants.

• Temperatures in a closed vehicle sitting in the hot sun can reach 160˚F and above. An animal will suffer immeasurably and may die before the temperature reaches 150˚F.

• Even when parked in the shade, the vehicle temperatures can exceed 104˚C.

• Leaving windows down more than 2 inches on an unattended vehicle will not prevent a car from reaching extreme temperatures.

• Even if the animal is revived, they can die due to severe internal organ damage.

Your dog trusts you to have their best interest at heart ALWAYS.
Please don’t risk their safety.

If you are not taking your dog inside your destination with you, PLEASE leave them at home where they are comfortable and safe.

Hi everyone,
Gee, it has been a while since I posted. But today I have important news to share.
First of all, I have a brand new web site! It was due after almost 20 years with PayPal. Now I have a site hosted by Square and it is awesome! Check it out for yourself: www.thetrumancollar.com
Secondly, I am working at a new venue this year. On November 18th and 19th I will be in the Bangor Mall. My booth is GF 56, which is in Store 11 G-Force. I look forward to seeing many eager shoppers a week before Black Friday. It should be fun~

The Truman Collar offers a large variety of colorful, playful, and fun fabric patterns and trim options. Unlimited combinations!

These are two awesome new 1-1/2" wide trims for larger dogs. Nobody has ordered the last batch of new trims, so maybe these two will interest someone out there?
