Dogs in Hot Cars - Alberta SPCA Vehicles become very hot in a short period of time. Your dog should never be left in the vehicle, even on moderately warm days. Pets can suffer heatstroke in minutes.

Remember, if the outside temperature is 21°C, the temperature in a parked car can rise to 40°C in just half an hour.
Note – source for that last stat: www.albertaspca.org/animal-prote...

The owner was left in the care of New West Animal Service who issued a fine as well as an order to take the dog to the veterinarian for an assessment. We are hoping that this incident was just a momentary lapse in judgement from a loving dog owner that won’t be repeated.

It was in obvious medical distress. Sgt. McGuinness put his canine first aid training to use and contacted New Westminster Animal Services for help. When the owner finally arrived on scene, they were shocked at what had taken place and said how much they loved their dog and didn’t mean to hurt them.

Luckily, Sergeant Gord McGuinness, the head of the Transit Police K9 Unit, happened to be driving by and the concerned individual was able to flag him down. After failing to get a hold of the vehicle’s owner, Sgt. McGuiness was able to open the vehicle door and get to the dog.

Last weekend, a passerby noticed a dog locked in a vehicle that was parked in New Westminster. It was 22°C, but with the car in direct sunlight, the temperature inside was much higher. The dog was in obvious distress.

If you’re planning to use transit to get to and from the Celebration of Light fireworks tonight, we have some safety tips to keep in mind during your journey

Today four Transit Police officers graduated from the Justice Institute of BC police academy. Look for them on the transit system soon. Congratulations to them and all of the Class 175 graduates!
