Coolant/antifreeze leaks are very sweet tasting and attractive to animals. Drinking these items can be fatal. Use animal friendly propylene glycol coolant rather than ethylene glycol in your vehicles. When traveling or vacationing with your pet please plan your route ahead of time and locate animal-friendly hotels or campgrounds.
