Dogs die in hot cars stickers
Living in a hot climate, we fight this problem from late March or early
April through into late October or early November. Not just with pets. We lose at least one child a year to a hot car..... and several more end up in the hospital. The average person here is pretty aware of the danger, and will notify authorities promptly.... Police and animal control officers are Very alert to the problem. I have four wire crates in my mini-van, two on the floor and two on top of those. I've gotten a "hot dog" card of some kind on my vehicle even when it's been days since I last carried a dog in the van. Doesn't upset me at all; someone Knew and that someone Cared. And will do it again when there Is an animal in a vehicle. Jo Wolf Martinez, Georgia |

People are in sneakers and don't realize roads are hot enough to fry an egg on. Char had a good post 2 years ago on what to watch for among those not aware of southern temps. -- |

Yes, we have the hot asphalt issue, too..... and caution obedience
students about this as most are regular dog walkers. It can be a problem for our pet therapy volunteers, too.... parking and getting the dog into the facility, or at least the shade. Jo Wolf Martinez, Georgia |

The average person here is pretty aware of the danger, and will notify authorities promptly.... Police and animal control officers are Very alert to the problem. I think in the problem in the Uk is that people aren't so aware especially when you have days when its not that hot but hot in a car. You'd think that the police dog handlers and trainers would be more aware than the average Joe but it seems in this case it was forgetfulness.

I bought a newer car last year and this one has air conditioning and the dogs really appreciate it. Alison |

Dibby has a pushchair for when it's hot or wet and cold. Alison |
