Cry Those cage driers should be against the law!

This is the main part of the article, but there was much more to read:

Aug. 3, 2006 — When Kimberly Clark's two Yorkshire terriers, Daisy and Trooper, were dropped off for a shampoo and blow-dry at the local dog salon in Clinton, Conn., Clark never thought they'd be at risk.

But hours later, Daisy was dead, and Clark found herself frantically racing to the vet's office where Trooper had been taken for emergency treatment.

"I could smell his skin burning when I got there," she recalls. The dog's pupils were dilating, and his kidneys had failed, she said. The vet put him to sleep the next day.

Clark still doesn't know exactly what happened, but she suspects a malfunctioning dryer cage.

"I can't let go of this," she says, adding that her dogs were like children to her.
