WHEW! So glad the pup is ok!

In cooler weather I always make it a point to pound a couple of times on the car hood before getting in and turning on the engine. There are quite a few outside cats where I live and ya never know just never know when/if they'll seek the warmth from a vehicle engine.

No pun intended but as the saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a 'pound' of cure (and heartache)!
