Harsh message, but it needs to be said. I'm tired of reading articles about children and pets dying from being left in hot cars in the summer. Children & pets (even adults) can't endure a hot car for long so why leave them to die? Makes no sense. The only time my dogs are in the car is when we're going for a drive, and I have the A/C on. Otherwise, they stay home while I run errands. With the heat & humidity being like it is, I restrict my dogs outside time to early mornings and late evenings; those times of day it's cooler & they enjoy it better. These tragedies can be prevented if parents and pet owners exercise a little common sense.
