Vet shuts himself in car to demonstrate the danger

Parked cars can be lethal to dogs

Every summer, idiots leave their dogs in their parked cars while they run inside "just for a minute." Veterinarian Dr. Ernie Ward recently created a video where he shut himself in a parked car to demonstrate how hot the interior of a car gets. In just 10 minutes the temperature has soared over 10 degrees. Within 30 minutes the temperatures are over 116 degrees. And dogs can't sweat - they suffer from the heat much more than we do.

Don't leave your dog in your car, people!
