Surely SPCA shouldn't have to be telling people not to do this. How thick are people???? Obviously as thick as pig shit.
SPCA is pleading with pet owners not to leave their dogs unattended in their vehicles even for a few minutes after a puppy was recently left in a car that reached 50°C.
As the weather warms, we have already received a surge of calls this month about dogs being left unattended inside vehicles in heat. This includes a five-month-old puppy SPCA Inspectors rescued in Wellington from a car with windows up, and the puppy showing signs of heat distress.
This is one of the biggest preventable welfare issues animals face during summer months, and it’s frustrating to see how many pet owners still routinely leave their dogs in hot cars.
It can take just a few minutes for the inside of a car to reach a temperature that's unsafe for your pet, so if you're leaving your vehicle, please take your dog with you. If you’re going places where this will not be possible, it’s important to leave them at home.
