I'm well aware of the dangers to pets. My dog has no access to the cement garage as it's detached. The thing is, I've brought the dog to work (auto repair shop) for the last ten years. She has the run of the place, but stays mostly in the office. We don't leave antifreeze uncovered as a rule, but she has never been attracted to it at all (yes we do watch). Also, my Snap-On dealer has a lab that makes the rounds with him I asked him if she ever went near any antifreeze (she runs through most everybody's shop on arrival) and he said the first six months he'd watch her, and anytime she got close he'd tell her "No". He said she's never shown any interest since. And again, back in the day I worked at a gas station that had guard dogs. I can never recall any special precautions that the owner took other than not leaving drain pans uncovered. The five gallon bucket trap would be very hard for a dog to get it's head into given the rod/towel roll through the top center. And you could very easily make something to cover the top (chicken wire, etc) so there is only access for the mice.
