Re: Makes me shudder...
I would never leave a dog of mine either in the car or tied up outside a supermarket. Even with the window down a car can quickly overheat and cause distress and even death for the dog. A neighbour of ours brought a little dog home that was tied up outside a supermarket, she saw it there and it was still there 2 hours later when she came back, she presumed it had been abandoned. Our neighbour went into the supermarket and asked them to put a call out over the loud speaker, they did, but nobody came forward to claim the dog so she took it to the vet to check for microchip, there wasn't one, so she brought it home. Our neighbour then put a photo of the dog on facebook, she also printed notices and put them up, including one outside the supermarket where she found the dog.Re: Makes me shudder...

Where I live in Hungary it's fairly common to see dogs waiting for their owners outside the supermarket or shop. There's very little danger of the dog being stolen or tormented as children are taught from an early age not to touch strange dogs.
