Each year, thousands of family pets suffer from heatstrokes or suffocation after being left in a parked car. Even if you are going into a store for just a second, the results can be tragic. In fact, many of the sad stories we hear about animals who die in cars are a result of someone who just had to run in very quickly and grab something. What they and many others don’t realize is that in just minutes your car can heat to dangerous levels, which put your pets at risk.
It actually doesn’t even need to be that hot out for tragedy to strike your pet. In fact, on a day that is just 75 degrees outside, a car can heat to 88 degrees in 10 minutes and rise to 122 degrees in less than an hour. Even with windows cracked, temperatures can be too high and dangerous for pets far too quickly.
