I’d never leave my dog in my vehicle. And why should anybody expect a scumbag car thief to “do the right thing” and let the dog out?
Most places now, if they find an unattended dog in your car, they’ll prosecute you.
I think I know.
Actually I blame the dog owner more, I find it completely ridiculous that so many people take their dogs to the store, mall, hardware stores, whatever. But to take an animal and then leave it in the car? What the hell, leave the dog home, and if you cant be away from it for a short period you have a serious problem. There are too many people claiming that their pets are service animals just so they can take them wherever they go and this ends up causing problems for people with legitimate service animals.
