E. Fuller Torrey, the author of the definitive guides to schizophrenia and manic depression, chronicles a disastrous swing in the balance of civil rights that has resulted in numerous violent episodes and left a vulnerable population of mentally ill people homeless and victimized. Interweaving in-depth accounts of landmark cases in California, Wisconsin, and North Carolina with a history of legislation and changes in the mental health care system, Torrey gives shape to the magnitude of our failure and outlines what needs to be done to reverse this ongoing--and accelerating--disaster. A new epilogue on the 2011 shooting in Tucson, Arizona, brings this tragic story up to date.

Dog pee pad tray holder.
Size: Small, Size: Small
I purchased this pre pad holder because my tiny pup would shred into a million pieces the pee pads I placed on the floor. This is a sturdy, easy to use and clean produce. You just lift up the grief top tray, add a pee pad and close... all done. If you get pads that are a bit too large, no oroblem, you can easily find them to fit into the tray. Quick clean up are with a wet wipes. For an occasional better clean... the whole thing can be washed in a bath yup or outside with a garden hose. Best of all, my pup seems to know exactly what to do with this tray! I would definitive comment and buy again. Actually, I have recommended it to several people.

Keeps the wee wee pads securely snapped in so puppy won't run away and play with them
Size: Small
My maltese puppy would run away and play with the wee wee pads if they weren't secreted inside a holder like this that straps them down. He uses the wee wee pads in this holder very well. I would give this five stars, but my puppy likes another kind of wee wee pad holder that has a plastic grate over it just a tiny bit more. I bought two different kinds of wee wee pad holders to keep at different locations to see what he liked to use. He uses both, but prefers the grated one just a little more. Even so, this is a quality wee wee pad holder and the pads snap in so easily and securely. Great purchase.
