I applaud you op. Don't listen to these idiots that probably never have done a good deed in their life, let alone save the life of something else. I dispise the police as well, but you did the right thing and I back you up 100%. A lil fact for the good for nothing's that wouldn't pick up a phone for someone's pet... At 15% dehydration a dog dies!
Its good to see that differing opinions can concur on this point.

I love dogs, I'm just confused about so many of you applauding someone else for calling the cops.
I don't know what I wouldve done first, but it definately wouldn't be to call the pigs.
Would you like someone to attract the cops to your vehicle?
Hence why I said the morality of this scenario is confusing.

It's the owner of the cars fault for attention being drawn to it. If they didn't want the attention, they shouldn't have locked a dog in there for that long.
If an actual dealer had something to hide and locked his dog in the car anyway, it wouldn't be too long before the idiot got popped anyways. I find it hard to feel bad for stupid.

This story illustrates why that is only a rule of thumb and not a commandment. Living in such a way as to view cops as the Unconditional Enemy is silly, and distracts from the real problem: their keepers. cn

Don't put yourself in a situation where you draw attention, and you won't. If you don't want someone nosing around your car, don't leave a dog to die of dehydration in your car in a public place. Not really a complicated moral issue here.

If something happened to me and my dogs got left in my car I'd hope someone had the decentcy to call the cops or get them out one way or another. But then again I'm not an idiot with pounds of coke in the trunk.
There's a difference between calling the cops to snitch on someone you don't like, lessen a sentence, etc. and calling the cops in a life and death situation. I dunno it you caught it but nobody in this story was charged with anything, so in no way did he snitch. He was just smart enough to take matters into his own hands and handled it properly. By protecting himself, his job, her car an most importantly that dog.

You get in big trouble here in AZ for leaving pets in vehicles especially in the summer when its 115 degrees outside.. A police officer was just reprimanded for leaving his service dog in his car while responding to a call with another officer. The dog ended up having to be put down.

You did the right thing man. Period, but here when people leave their kids or dogs in the car they dispatch the fire department not the po po/
Happens here all the time, people are just flat out stupid.

Your being so perplexed by a rather simple call is confusing.
Kudos to you, PR! Compassion and empathy rank highly in my eyes.

Thank you. Just about spoke for me. And thanks everyone else that has common sense and knows when to do the right thing. it sucks to see that there are people here who would willingly leave a dog in the car because of the what if. Or they are so against cops that you can't interact with them just long enough to save an animal? It saddens and perplexes me.

You're my hero..Okay so I'm a supervisor for a security company, my location is a medical office building right next to a hospital (we have a parking garage that people going to the hospital inadvertently park in constantly).
So I notice Yesterday before the parking garage closes, that a car is still inside the garage (happens all the time). Problem is the car (BMW wagon) has a dog inside, a little fcking purse dog (does not happen all the time). Not a big fan of small dogs, but I am a fan of life. Unfortunately I can do nothing yet as 9/10 times people come take the car and then leave after hours, mostly peoPle visiting family late at night, then leaving.
Then I arrive for my shift today, and the fucking car and dog are still there. Now it's a small dog that hasn't had water or food in at least 24 hours. So I decide to take matters into my own hands as it has been hot, and even though the parking garage is 10 degrees cooler than outside, it's still In the high 70's in there.
Now even though I'm a security guard, I'm no cop wannabe, and not a huge fan of cops in general. However I am aware of the ability they have to help the community in situations such as this. So I called a cop, a young guy shows up. He agrees this is pretty fucked up and gets to work. He runs the license plate and gets the name of the owner, and goes to the hospital (next door, patients often park in our garage on accident) to see if the owner is checked in. ( this was what we had thought was the case because who the fuck leaves a dog in the car that long lunless it's a medical emergency, especially concidering our proximity to the hospital?)
Turns out the owner is checked into the hospital because of a medical issue. Making the story even sadder, it's a middle aged woman with no family willing/available to help get the dog while she was checked in. So after a short time I'm informed she is most likely about to check out of the hospital (none of my concern) and assist her dog. Problem is she is on medication and I can't let her drive outta there with the nedication she was on, its like a dui. But I also can't physically stop her due to legal reasons regarding contracted security and liability bullshit.
Thank the stars this lady was easily convinced to take a cab, they had her on some good shit over at the hospital. Long story short the dog was taken home by the owner and hopefully taken care of. I did my part I feel like. It seemed like if I didn't get the ball rolling, that dog was staying in the car another 24 hours, which was a 100% death sentence with how small it was coupled with heat and lack of food and water. Also the fact that the lady didn't start trying to help the dog until a cop showed up in her room reminding her it was about to be animal cruelty.
I hope the dog is in good care now and not in peril any more (even though I hate little fucking a ankle biters). Well thats my story. Stay geeked, like I was the whole time this shit went down
P.s. yeah yeah one starred
