⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
This Story Is Just, Ugh…
I work in a discount store that sells clothes and trinkets that were considered “rejects” on the factory floor but good enough for us to sell at a discount. A new coworker who is still learning English after moving here from Cambodia is helping a customer buy a “Live, Laugh, Love” display made of large solid letters.
Coworker: “I’m sorry, this is damaged. You’ve lost a “la”.”
Customer: “Pardon me?”
Coworker: “It’s supposed to say “Live, laugh, love” but the “la” has fallen off of the laugh. If you like I can get you one that isn’t broken.”
Customer: “Are you kidding?! That’s even better! I wanted it because of that!”
Coworker: “Okay… if you’re sure?”
The customer is even more excited and makes the purchase, leaving my coworker confused. They share their confusion with me.
Me: “One thing you’ll learn about the English language is how much we hate our own phrases and love to subvert them.”
Coworker: “What do you mean?”
Me: “That sign said: “Live, ugh, love.”
Coworker: *Blank look.*
Me: “Trust me, it’s better.”
