Oh my God! When are people going to understand that leaving dogs in a hot vehicle is likely to kill them. This was a case of complete incompetence!

Thank you for updating us Maria. I was horrified at the news article you put in the other day. I hope all the owners of all the dogs involved sue that "professional" (pfffff!) handler to the hilt.

Hey, sue the s.o.b and then file cruelty to animals and let 'em sit in jail for a very very long time! That's just wrong! Haven't read the article, don't think I need to.

I am so happy Arnold recovered and is back with his owner. I bet she won't use that careless handler again. She should be banned as a handler and prosecuted to the maximum. Thanks for the update Maria.

I think that the handler was just to tired after she got home and didn't want to bother putting the dogs up for the night. So sad that so many died, but am glad Arnold is alright and home now. I hope officials are going to do some serious investigating about this situation.
Thank you Maria.

The hanlder is obviously lying. What a @@#$#$ Glad this one woof will be okay. I am so careful about who interacts with my animals, let alone 'HANDLE' them!
