  • I hate people.  It's been so hot lately I don't even want to be outside for 20 minutes.  That poor puppy.

  • That makes me absolutely sick, what a heartless thing to do.  :(
  • one time at my library, I was walking in from outside and saw someone had brought their dog to the library and left him in the car with all the windows up.  it was fall, so it wasn't extremely hot, but I totally broke the rules and made an announcement over the loudspeaker (I worked there) for the owner of the car to come to the front desk immediately.  She sauntered up and asked what was wrong, I told her the dog needed air and she said, "I'm just checking my email, he'll be fine.  I do it all the time."  WTF do people take their pets out to do errands and then leave them in the car?!  Leave the damn thing at home, idiots!!!  Argh, that pisses me off to no end!
  • That just makes me ill. She should know better.

  • Horrible.  I reposted this on FB.  I would like to think that none of my friends would by this stupid, but people think "oh the car is in the shade" or whatevs.

  • This just makes me mad.  How dumb are some people?  I know everyone thinks that when they do this (leave a dog, or God forbid, a child in a hot car) that they'll be back "in just a minute!"  But that car goes from uncomfortable to deadly in less than 5 minutes.

    So sad for the dog!  Sad

  • That pisses me off.  Whenever I have the pups, I leave my truck running with the AC on high.  Now, people have said things to me about leaving my truck because I'm ruining the environment, but sorry dude, Im not leaving my kiddos to bake in this heat.

  • That is just awful.  What a poor puppy!  And how sad for the person who saw the dog collapse and called 911.
