A great reminder!! 🐶🥵☀️
☀️Summer weather has arrived!!☀️
💥Heat warnings are being posted all over!! BE AWARE, CRACKING OPEN A CAR WINDOW DOES NOT HELP!💥
Despite the warnings, hundreds of dogs in the U.S. & Canada die every year after being left in a hot car.
Someone you know may need to read this very important message. ⚠️🚙⚠️
SIX MINUTES is all it takes for a dog to overheat in a hot car. 🥵🐶
Your dog could suffer serious injury or die in a matter of minutes if left alone in a car.
💥The temperature inside a closed vehicle left in the sun can double within 12 minutes.
💥At least 75% of the temperature increase in a closed vehicle occurs within 5 minutes of closing the vehicle, and at least 89% of the temperature increase occurs within 15 minutes of closing the vehicle.
💥Temperatures exceeding 104˚ F can lead to death or serious injury for the occupants.
💥Temperatures in a closed vehicle sitting in the hot sun can reach 160˚F and above. An animal will suffer immeasurably and may die before the temperature reaches 150˚F.
💥Even when parked in the shade, the vehicle temperatures can exceed 104˚C.
💥Leaving windows down more than 2 inches on an unattended vehicle will not prevent a car from reaching extreme temperatures.
💥Even if the animal is revived, they can die due to severe internal organ damage.
Your dog trusts you to have their best interest at heart ALWAYS.
💥💥💥Please don’t risk their safety!!! If you are not taking your dog inside your destination with you, 💥💥💥PLEASE leave them at home where they are comfortable and safe.🐶
