i did this once on a hot day and the skin pulled out from the tacks around the edge...the heat had tightened the hide so much...it was made in a place where it can be moist and foggy..in the redwoods and the summer heat in the inland valley far from the ocean was more than it could take!

i have heard of someone who left her car unlocked while shopping at a salvation army and she came back to 8 puppies in the car!!

beware of unlocked doors!
