Hotdogs in the Geo
Let it be said and known throughout the land: People who leave their pets in the car while they shop are going to Hell.
Every year, people leave their animals in cars during the hot summer months. Some suffer heat stroke and serious injury, or in the worst instances, they can die. It's a problem Tybee Island officials know all too well. That's why Tybee Police are cracking down on anyone who puts an animal at risk.
Police say it only takes a matter of minutes for a dog to be a victim of heat exhaustion.
"Fifteen minutes could result in the death of an animal," explained Tybee Island Police Corporal Jason Heckman.
Yeah, I just don't get it. I think it should be common law that anyone happening on a dog inside a car in the Wal-Mart parking lot should be legally entitled to break through the windshield with a cinderblock. Who's with me?

Planning for Pets
Someone has finally weighed in on the pro-pets side of the emergency planning stuff:
There are people who will not leave their pets behind, therefore endangering not only their lives but the lives of rescue personnel.
I do agree that the majority of the responsibility lies with the pet owners, and yes, in most cases, people should have their own evacuation plan for themselves along with their pets. But there are people who do not have the means to evacuate out of the county and can't go to public shelters because they won't leave their pets behind. Most of these people are going to be the elderly and the poor.
