Some people shouldn't own animals. [View all]
It was 107 degrees when I got off work. I stopped by a local grocery store to pick up a few things and as I was getting ready to head back out to my car a woman came in upset. As she parked she noticed that there was a dog in the vehicle next to where she parked. One window of the car was open. She and I both commented that you do not leave animals in a vehicle when the temperature is as hot as it is today. We said something to some of the store workers and the woman got out her cell phone and called the police. The police asked her to stay until they arrived. I told her that I would stay with her.
Someone must have found the owner because she came out of the store, on her cell phone, complaining that someone was making a big deal about her leaving her dog in her car. She mumbled that if someone had a problem with it they can just call the police. The other lady and I piped up that you do not leave dogs in cars in this weather and the police have been called.
She walked over to her car, started it up to put all the windows down and walked back into the store (bitching, moaning and complaining the whole time). It wasn't too long before she came back out, threw what she got in the car, and got out of there in a hurry. We figured that deep down inside she knew she was in the wrong because she put all the windows down and didn't waste a lot of time getting out of there. Unfortunately she took off before the police got there (not having learned anything and claiming how much she loved her dog).
She had the nerve to tell the other lady and I that people like us were why bad things happened. What an idiot. I am sorry that she didn't get a chance to talk to the police. I would not hesitate to do it again.
