I will be calling my trainer this evening. We have a 9am training session booked, but it is forecasted to be like 35C with humidity bringing it to 42C... I can't do the conversion right now but that is hot. My car's A/C is on the blink, and I don't even want to risk driving with the pups in the car.

I think we will go to the lake instead.:-)

Gemy it was 104f without the humidity...tomorrow will be even hotter, so glad buses are now air conditioned, seeing i have to drive one all day.
I think i would rather be at the lake though.

Poor dog i'm glad you did something, as you said some people will walk by and think nothing of it. You probaly saved that puppie's life. Good for you.

She was friendly and felt hot to touch. She kept running under the steering wheel probably to get out of the sun. I stayed with the pom while the tech went in to find owner. About 7 minutes later a different tech comes out with a lady. They go to the car and the lady puts a leash on her and takes her inside. The first vet tech was out finishing her break and I asked her what happened. She said the lady was at Banfield with another dog seeing the vet. What is wrong with people. It's 102 here! The tech told me they already had a puppy DOA today because the stupid owners took it on a bike ride and had in running next to the bikes. Are people really that stupid. There are excessive heat warnings everywhere. I was also amazed at how many people walked by the truck and looked but kept going. There was no way I was going anywhere until I knew that pom was safe. Or as safe as she can be with a stupid owner.

I just started another thread about the same thing I experianced last Saturday. People make me so mad with their ignorance. If I can't take my (2) inside with me where-ever I am going they dont go with me. I keep them home safe.

thank you for caring we need more people like you that stop and be sure the dog is taken out of the heat.

wow you probably saved the dogs life. Way to go!

Christinee · 07-14-2012, 02:48 PM

So glad you seen it before something bad happened.

Sandysbabies · 07-14-2012, 06:06 PM

If you had not done anything they probably would have had another DOA. Who knows how much longer she would have been in there with the other dog at the vets. Good for you. These people need more than a slap on the hand and fine. If the laws were more stiff and the fines higher maybe these idiots would get some brains. It just makes me so mad it makes me sick to my stomach.
