Police dog dies in hot car TX [Amarillo Globe News] I was appalled when I read the title of this post but upon reading the article it doesn't look like negligence was involved.  Most K-9 officers are extremely protective of their dogs and treat them like a member of their own family.  This was a case of the air conditioning kicking off while the dog was in the car unattended.  The article is worth a read for any pet owner who has to occassionally leave their dog in the car for any amount of time because it tells you several instances where a modern car AC will shut down, putting your dog in danger.  via [Dog News: weird, inspiring dog tales]
