Calling Animal Control

Today the girls and I decided to go eat lunch down the street at this place called Incredible Pizza. It's basically like an arcade based around 50's memorabilia with all you can eat pizza, dessert, pasta, and salad bar. A fancy CiCi's mixed with Chucky Cheese. Anyway, we pull up to the Arcade and park next to the junky old car. I mean at first glance all you could notice was papers, and boxes up on the dashboard and then clothes here and there. It's a beautiful eighty degrees here without a single cloud in the sky...it's very warm. Anyway, all of a sudden I see this black lab poke it's head out from underneath the seat on the floor board at look out the window. My heart sank. The windows to this owners car were not even cracked to let fresh air in. I can only imagine how hot the inside of that vehicle was. We all sort of made a little remark and went on inside the arcade to eat. An hour an 15 minutes later we came back out and that dang car was still parked there with the dog inside and the windows rolled up. Only this time the dog was panting. At that point, I had enough! I wrote the license plate number down and when I got back to work I called animal control. I don't care who you are and what you do...but for small children and animals to leave unattended in a hot car is just asking for your picture on the six o' clock news. You just don't do that! That is negligence and cruelty to animals and just down right wrong. It's one thing to leave the windows rolled half way down and the animal in there while you leave the car running to go inside the gas station and get a drink...something where it is alone for only a split second...but any longer than that is just wrong. What is the world coming too?
