4 dogs died in hot car while woman ate lunch in New Smyrna Beach

A 4-year-old Goldendoodle, two approximately 12-week-old Goldendoodle puppies, and a 2-year-old Boxer.


A whole hour. Unbelievable. It's summer here in Florida - you cannot do stuff like this. 5 minutes is too long! And *someone* saw this and didn't do anything is what bothers me the most. This is a busy place - lots of people - busy parking area. If I saw someone leaving their dogs in their car there would be a BIG problem.

Almost incomprehensible. Why didn`t somebody call the police? They`ll break a car`s windows in a heartbeat in situations such as this, and they don`t have a sense of humor about this at all.

I`ve learned in my seven decades on the planet that we as a species don`t deserve them.

Just saw where she was arrested on felony animal cruelty charges. That`s great to see.

I hope she's never allowed to have a dog again.

There’s a special place in Hell for anyone this self-centered and intentionally oblivious.

I swear, I think I like all dogs more than I do most people. I guess I need help.

I'm with you...most dogs treat us better as a rule...

If you want a pet and companion, there are so many great dogs in shelters and foster homes to be had. All our dogs are from shelters and I would encourage everyone to adopt.

I think the Good Lord gave us the dog so that we, as humans, can see what pure, unquestioning love looks like.

Some states and/or municipalities have laws protecting people who break into cars to rescue animals locked in a hot car.
People don’t realize that a dog uses air movement over the tongue to cool down. Hot air doesn’t cool the dog off. They are very susceptible to heat related injuries vs humans.
