Dogs going to friends
Are you going on holiday and leaving your dog with friends or family, who don´t own a dog?
If so, I´ve just read an article by ¨find my lost dog¨ and it stresses some good points that we, as dog owners, might take for granted that everyone knows.
Most people are aware that a car is a dangerous place for dogs to be left in the heat of the summer, but what most people don´t consider is the amount of time a dog can quickly deteriorate.
A chat with a teacher, a stop-off for groceries, a chat with someone you haven´t seen for a while, popping in to make a doctor´s appointment, all these everyday situations can endanger dogs when the minutes’ tick away.
The article by ´find my lost dog´ suggests a few ways of getting the message across to people who might not be aware. However, I´m one of those worriers who has to make sure the message is loud and clear! “Please don´t leave the dog in the car, even for a few minutes. It can kill them.”
The RSPCA says that when temperatures are 22c outside, the inside of a car can get to 47c in less than an hour. A dog can die within twenty minutes. So that ´quick´ stop at the shops, that chat, or the waiting in the doctor´s queue, can make all the difference to a dog´s well-being.
So if you have friends, relatives, or helpful neighbours looking after your dog, just make sure they are aware of the awful consequences of leaving a dog in a car on a warm or worse still, a hot day.

Thank you for another informative site. Where else could I get that type of information written in such an ideal way? I have a project that I’m just now working on, and I have been on the look out for such information.
Hi there, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam feedback? If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can suggest? I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any support is very much appreciated.
Hello there! This post could not be written any better! Reading this post reminds me of my previous room mate! He always kept chatting about this. I will forward this write-up to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
