Change of law regarding leaving dogs in hot cars
Change UK laws regarding leaving dogs in hot cars
Dogs can die within 20 minutes of being left in a car on a hot day.
It should be an automatic criminal offence of animal cruelty for people who are caught doing this and bans from keeping dogs.
Zero tolerance is the only way forward.
- Make it illegal and an offence to leave a dog in a hot car
- Compulsory prosecution Under Section 9 of the Animal Welfare Act of 2006 when a dog is rescued from a hot car
- Amend Section 5(2)(a) of the Criminal Damage Act 1971 so you will not be prosecuted for breaking a car window to rescue a dog from a hot car
