Yesterday we talked about using pet safety decals to show firefighters there are dogs in your house, just in case you were gone when a fire broke out.
Today we talk about a related problem: if a fire should break out and your dog runs away during firefighting, you need to make sure you have a good photo of your dog to help track him down.

(This applies not only to fire damage but floods, tornadoes, and hurricanes, too.)
Consider storing a good photo of your dog someplace such as:
- in a safety deposit box at your bank
- at a friend’s house
- online at a photo sharing site such as Flickr
- online in a webmail account such as gmail, yahoo, or hotmail (not in a regular email account that would have downloaded to your computer, probably in your house)
- at your office
