Every year, dogs die after being locked inside cars while their owners shop or run other errands. These tragic deaths are entirely preventable. Leaving a dog in a car for even “just a few minutes” may be too long. Warm weather can be a killer for a dog left inside a car. When it’s 85 degrees out, the temperature inside a car — even with the windows left open — can soar to 102 degrees in 10 minutes and 120 degrees in half an hour. Outside temperatures in the 70s can be dangerous, as well. A dog’s normal body temperature ranges from 101 to 102.5 degrees. Dogs can withstand a body temperature of 107 to 108 degrees for only a short time before suffering organ failure, brain and nerve damage — or even death.
