Dog Days No Time For Joyrides

GEARING UP:

Lake Bluff Gets Ready and Set for Bike Race & Block Party

BY LIBBY ELLIOTT DAILYNORTHSHORE.COM

Humans who routinely bring their dogs on joyrides to the grocery store or dry cleaners should leave their canine besties safely at home when the temperature rises above 70 degrees. Hot cars can be deadly for dogs. Experts have calculated that a 75-degree day can translate into a temperature of 118F inside a car — even with the windows cracked. A pleasant 81 degreeday can mean car temperatures rise as high as 138 degrees inside a parked car. “Heat builds up quickly in a car,” said Dr. David Cohen, chief veterinarian at Glenview Animal Hospital. “Temperatures can climb as high as 140 degrees in a parked car on a hot summer day. That’s enough to kill a dog of heat prostration in five minutes.” “Hot-car” laws protecting pets are becoming increasingly common across the United States.
