Dangers of Leaving Your Dog in a Parked Car PSA [VIDEO]
ARL and Boston Fire Department team up for public service video
A few weeks ago, the ARL teamed up with our private veterinary clinic Boston Veterinary Care and the Boston Fire Department to create a public service video to warn pet owners of the dangers of leaving a dog in a parked car during the summer.
With temperatures approaching 90 degrees around Greater Boston, today seemed like the perfect day to re-share the video.
Watch it now:
Remember: dogs don’t sweat the way people do.
Even when it’s only 80 degrees outside, the inside of a car can heat up to more than 120 degrees in just minutes – even with the windows cracked. When the temperature rises, leave your dog at home.
Special thanks to the Boston Fire Department!
