Never Cool: The Dangers of Leaving Your Dog in a Hot Car

6/23/2022

3 Comments

 
It can take just 10 minutes for it to get almost 20° F hotter inside a car. Automobile glass traps heat from sunlight, so parking in the shade or leaving the windows open doesn’t help either. Leaving your dog inside the car can cause heatstroke.

If you think your dog has heatstroke:
  • Get them in front of a fan or inside an air-conditioned vehicle or building.
  • Give them drinking water and apply cool (not ice cold) water on their skin.
  • Once their body has cooled down, go to a veterinarian immediately!
