A pet should never be left unattended in a parked car when the outside temperature is over 70 degrees.  A parked car quickly becomes unbearably hot inside within minutes, even with the windows left slightly open.  In just 10 minutes the temperature inside your car can reach 102 degrees or hotter.  At 110 degrees your pet may have just minutes to live.  Your pet will suffer heatstroke, leading to collapse, brain damage and an agonizing death.  Leave your pet at home if the possibility exist that you may have to leave your dog in your car, use a dog sling carrier and take your pet with you.

Should your pet become overheated you should take emergency action.  Put your pet into cold water or give a cold water rubdown immediately to lower body temperature.  Take your pet to a veterinarian for a thorough examination.
