Little do they know that even on a cool day of 80 degrees Fahrenheit, the inside of their car gets to 100 degrees Fahrenheit in only 5 minutes. What about a hot day? When the outside temperature is 100 degrees Fahrenheit in only 10 minutes their car will be 140 degrees Fahrenheit inside. Also as the heat rises in the car, dogs began to suffer heat exhaustion and suddenly begin to panic. This only exacerbates their situation.

This fate has been suffered by many dogs all over the world. The best answer may be to leave your fury friend in the safe airy house or backyard. However, many times this isn't an option. Owners should be free to take their dogs to the park and then go run an errand on the way back home without having to worry.
To stop this from occurring a simple warning system can be created to tell owners when the car is getting too hot for their dog. It could be bought on an app, for individuals with smartphones, or purchased as a separate device that could be hooked on to your car-keys.
