Warm Weather Car Safety


Now that the temperatures outside are finally starting to warm up, here is something very important you need to remember…especially if you like to take your pet with you everywhere.
 

 
 

Even when it is 70º outside, which is a nice cool temperature for us, it is too hot to leave your pet in the car, even with the windows cracked.  I can’t tell you the horror stories I have heard about pets and children being left in the car.  Last summer a K-9 police officer here in Iowa left his K-9 partner in the car while he went into the court house to make a call.  He got side tracked by other business and was gone an hour.  When he got back to his car, his K-9 partner was dead.

 

If you must take your pet with you, take another person with you who can watch your pets and help keep them cool. Do Not leave your pet unattended in a vehicle, even with the windows cracked, if the temperature is going to be above 65º.

 

Nuff Said.

 

Be Well & Be Happy
