Do Not Leave Your Dog In Your Car When It Is HOT

[Hereford Voice]

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DOG IN YOUR CAR!!

Now that the weather is getting hotter, we'd like to remind people not to leave dogs in cars, even 'just 5 minutes' can be fatal.

When the temperature is 20 degrees outside, in just 10 minutes the inside of a car can reach 27 degrees and can get to an unbearable 47 degrees within the hour.

Leaving the windows open and parking in the shade will not stop a dog overheating and it can take just a few minutes for a dog to die of heat stroke.

I hate seeing poor animals stuck in cars, if I ever see a dog stuck in a hot car I will just smash the window and call the police

I would probably do the same thing. Annoys me because people wouldn't leave a small child in the car so why leave their dog, no excuse.
