Don't Leave Pets in Hot Cars

As a dog lover, this really ticks me off. NK State Rep. Doreen Costa snapped this photo Tuesday morning while shopping in Warwick. The dog was left in the car while the owner went inside to make copies. The windows were shut and the dog was barking when Rep. Costa arrived. According to studies, temperatures inside a closed car during this weather can jump to 115º.

What would you have done in this situation? Waited for the owner? Called police? Broken the window?
