pay attention to the snow

On New Year’s Day a friend of ours was walking her dog in the snow. He suddenly started screaming and lo and behold, he had essentially impaled himself on a metal spike hidden in the snow.

It was in a public park and so she wanted to start a website to draw attention to a few things… mainly that there is no 911 for pets and that the parks system should be taking better care of the area. Her dog is 90 lbs, which is why he survived with only(!) a three hour surgery and 20 stitches. Had it been a kid or a smaller dog, they would’ve died.

I built the site for her over the weekend and today she, and the site, were on the 6 o’clock news.

Our work made the news!
