What can you do to save a dog’s life that is in serious distress in a hot car ?

1. Call 911…. give them the make, model, color and license plate to the vehicle.

Let them know you if you are willing to break a window on the car if the dog isn’t going to make it.

Remember all calls are recorded, so let them know if it is a life or death situation.

2. Is the dog showing signs of:

• Excessive panting

• Vomiting

• Dark Red Gums

• High Fever

• Weakness

• Unresponsiveness

• Rapid Heartbeat

• Collapse

• Lethargy

If so take action to remove the suffering dog from the vehicle.

3. Gather witness and record their names and phone numbers.

Take pictures or video with your cell phone or camera.

4. Do not leave the scene until the situation is resolved.

Wait for the authorities to arrive.

Beware the dog’s owner is going to be embarrassed or angry and try to minimize the situation…. this is where pictures or video comes in handy.
