Includes a graphic description of what happens when a dog suffers heatstroke--and it can happen in just minutes.
In fact, researchers learned that when it's a sunny 78 degrees, the temperature in a parked car with windows cracked rises at least 32 degrees in 30 minutes. So: 78 degrees to 110 in half an hour.
"A matter of minutes, five or 10 minutes" is all it takes on a hot day for a dog to wind up organ-damaged or dead, Messonnier says.
My local Humane Society won't get money from me after I captured a stray cat terrorizing my outside pride, and they wanted $60 to take him. I almost reminded them that cinder blocks are only $2.00, but in the end I drove him ten miles away and let him loose.
My local SPCA, however, are amazing folks.
If you want to punish cats the humane society is still worth a donation, since they kill a lot of them. Personally I find such "gifts" self-defeating since I know that most of money would go towards buying stickers.
The HSUS Disaster Center has several brochures available for download to help you plan for the needs of your pets, horses, and livestock during an emergency.
