Today, I left my dog in the car while I quickly ran into a store. I came out to a woman smashing at my window, screaming that it was too hot in the car for the dog and saying I was being inhumane. The car was still running and the air conditioning was on. FML

Today, I left my dog in my car for 5 minutes while I ran into a store. The car was running so he was fine, the thing that wasn't so fine is that when I walked out my car wasn't there. My dog somehow moved my car into the middle of a intersection, almost causing an accident. FML
Today, my mom and I were going to the store. I stayed in the car while she went in. In the car next to me, there was a dog in the driver's seat barking at me. Bored, I barked back at it until I realized there was someone in the passenger's seat watching me. FML
Today, while in the car with my mom, we accidentally ran over a dog who had sprinted into the road. Instead of stopping, my mom continued to drive as if nothing happened. Every time I tried to bring it up, she merely talked loudly over me. FML
Today, I yelled at my dog for waking me up growling and barking out the window. He was doing it at the person stealing my car. FML
Today, I saw a young child passed out unattended in a hot car so I smashed the windows to rescue him. After waiting with him for 30 minutes, his mom came out and called the cops on me. I officially have a probation violation and the mom went home free. FML
Today, I was sitting in a parked car. A woman was having difficulties maneuvering out. She honked the horn repeatedly for me to move, then looked me in the eye and called me a "f**king bitch", before driving off. I was in the passenger seat. FML
Today, I got locked out of my car while the engine was idling. The "good news"? My dog inside the car thought this was the funniest thing ever and barked happily every time I tried to open it. FML
Today, I ran to my car and zoomed to work to avoid being late. I was in such a hurry, I forgot to close all my windows. When I got back to my car, I found a dead squirrel inside. FML
Today, I went to pick up my dog from the vet after she had surgery. I somehow managed to lock my keys, my purse, and my dog in the car. FML

I bet she is one of those wacky cat ladies...in this case a wacky dog lady...logically that was what you should have done...

YDI because no matter the weather or if you leave the AC on, you should never ever leave a dog unattended in a car. Would you leave a 2 year old child locked in a car, even with the AC on? No, you wouldn't. It's no different for a dog.

You can leave a dog in the car for a couple of minutes just fine, don't be a drama queen... It's not a baby.

It's an animal, not a child.

I don't know what the laws are in the OP's state, but in some places it is illegal to leave your animal or child alone in a car even if it is running and a person of the public is allowed to rescue the animal or child before the police show up (minutes count in these situations for saving lives), which includes smashing the window to gain entry to the car. It only takes a few minutes for a car to get hot enough to kill and it does happen with both animals and children, sadly. Please also restrain your animals with pet seatbelts (best) or crates for their safety, your safety (so they don't hit you in a crash), and the safety of other drivers on the road (so they aren't distractions to your driving).

How can you be "inhumane" to an animal?

The dog may not be human, but you're still supposed to act like one

If the car were running.. Why smash the windows? Wouldn't the driver side door be unlocked? Stupid woman.. Sorry OP.

Ever heard of remote start? You can have it running and locked while having the key on you

Didn't she hear the car running or see the exhaust pipe smoking? I'm all for the protection of animals but what a dumb bitch...
