Fire trucks from Bristol Fire Company carry oxygen masks for people, but usually not pets.

That’s about to change.

Wednesday evening at Bristol Fire Company 51 on Wood Street, the answer to that  question will be revealed and donated as part of Project Breathe. The project by Invisible Fence Inc. will be donating oxygen masks for pets to the fire company.

Marketing Coordinator Jessica DePaul for Invisible Fence and the project said tonight’s donation is their biggest ever.

“We want the community and fire companies to know there is something available for pets to use for breathing in fires,” DePaul said Wednesday afternoon.
