Do You Leave Your Pet In Your Auto ?

Did you know the temperature inside your vehicle can rise almost 20º F in just 10 minutes. In 20 minutes, it can rise almost 30º F...and the longer you wait, the higher it goes. At 60 minutes, the temperature in your vehicle can be more than 40 degrees higher than the outside temperature. Even on a 70-degree day, that's 110 degrees inside your vehicle!

Your vehicle can quickly reach a temperature that puts your pet at risk of serious illness and even worse, even on a day that doesn't seem hot to you. And cracking the windows makes no difference.

Car-Lotta Car Sales reminds you....  before you put your pet in the vehicle, ask yourself if you really need to take your pet with you – and if the answer is no, leave your pet safely at home. If you must take your pet with you, make sure he or she is properly restrained so the trip is as safe as possible for both of you.
