Leaving a dog in the car is ok in reasonable temperatures as long the conditions permit it. Me, Dora and Felonious all stay in the east bay where temps damn near always fall between 60-80 degrees. Those examples are from vacaville which is a valley where the temperatures get much more extreme, relative to our location at least. I personally don't do it for more than 20-30 minutes, but as long as they're comfortable I wouldn't worry about it for a longer period of time if I were in a pinch. I wouldn't make a habit of it though, just if I were coming back from a walk and had to run a quick errand or something.

The first story is in Oakland and the dog died from being in the car a short while and breh is talking about leaving his dog in the car for hours. :why:

Why even jump into a conversation when you literally have half the facts wrong?

You want more articles of dogs dying the car in the bay? :upsetfavre:Cars heat up even when it's nice outside. Ya'll really don't know that?

It's literally illegal to do this breh. Why am I even going back and forth with ya'll this is literally common sense.

If You Need Scientific Proof For Why You Shouldn't Leave Your Dog In The Car, Here It Is

"Temperatures in enclosed cars can rise quickly in just a few minutes, even on a mild day, and even if the windows are cracked. Pets left inside are at risk for heatstroke, which can kill them in just 15 minutes, according to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Cold cars are also dangerous — according the American Veterinary Medical Association, “a car can rapidly cool down in cold weather; it becomes like a refrigerator.”

Breh.

Dont try and rationalize anything.

Nobody with sense will leave their dog in the car in 90 degree weather with the windows rolled up.

I see where you're getting at :ehh:

I leave my windows more than cracked and that article from oakland also said it was it was a hot day that it happened though. As always common sense isn't that common these days so advising people not to leave their dogs in the car is probably a better idea. However, it's also not an automatic death sentence to do so, and you're acting just as extreme as he is with the multiple hours statement and imagine that he doesn't mean it's an unattended period. I wouldn't go for that long, as I know temperatures can spike, but I know him personally and he's very well versed in caring for his dogs and is the farthest thing from a neglectful owner. There is a middle ground in all this and a discussion to be learned from for current and prospective caretakers. If there's an option to tie them up outside while running the errand, it's best to go that route.


That oakland story also said that it was a dog walker that did it and not the actual owner which is a whole nother issue.

Yea, I wouldn’t leave the dog in the car for more than a few minutes on any sunny day 50 and up. The temps rise inside cars much faster than the outside temp. You’re just asking for something to happen. And I don’t know where in Oakland I’d be ok leaving windows cracked on my car (you’re asking to get robbed) for the dog to get air unless it was like a quick run inside of a restaurant to pick up food.

I got an 8-5 and I leave my pit out in the yard when I leave. I feel bad for leaving him alone, but he still got it better than most folks treat they dogs.


When I get home, I let him in the crib after I brush him and his paws off so we do spend time together. I got the weekends off, so I'm there with him. He finds stuff to do like bark at the neighbors that pass by, tryna dig under the security wall, play w/ his tennis balls, or chase birds out of his food bowl etc... Sooner or later I'ma get him a female pit soon so they can breed puppies.

My ole lady wants a dog, or rather, she says my daughter needs a dog :comeon:

All I’m thinking in my head is how I’ll be walking the dog, coming home for lunch to check on him, and feed the dog. Plus, she wants an English bulldog, and I’ve heard they can be very sickly, slobber a lot, and lounge often.

I told her I want a cat.

And btw, about these carpet strips.


Anyone else know why dogs do that "circle" thing before they lay on carpets or rugs?? My boy does that every time he lays on his rug.

Every. Single. Time.
