The other night we went out to dinner, and there was a dog hanging his head out the window and was probably about 60lbs or so, and big and furry. It was like 55 degrees outside so I know he was comfortable and just hangin' out, he was fine.
However with little dogs, and so many being stolen, etc. No! I wouldn't. Plus Jackson would probably bark the whole time. I know this because the only time I've left him in the car is when I'm dogsitting and their dog is aggressive so I leave Jackson in the car while I let them out in the yard and he barks almost the whole time, lol. I've also left him with I have to go into the gas station but I can see him through the window (and he can see me- so no barking) and I take like all of 60 seconds. |
I also have left Rosie to pay for my gas. And yes it is like 60 seconds and she can be seen. So I think that is ok. But not where I can't see her and for an hour. I think that is insane. This poor dog was barking like crazy too. I am sure the dog didn't like it at all.
