Interesting article, as were some of the comments! 
I don't know if I could trust my dogs to that sort of technology, I'd be worried that it would fail so I still go with the safest option - DON'T LEAVE DOGS IN CARS!!!  |

Indeed, no need to leave dogs in cars, take them with you!

If Vinny can’t come too we don’t go it’s as simple as that. But it’s reasuring that a company is taking this sort of thing seriously as it’s not what you would call a deal breaker is it.

That's all fine & good. But people will still worry about seeing dogs in cars on a hot day.
And if the system fails.....

That brings me to the topic - how far would you go if you see a dog in a car on a hot day - no owner in sight even though you have seen the poor dog suffering? I personally would break the law and smash a window (obviously not the one where the dog is sitting). Calling the police could possibly take far too long! |

I'd take photos of the car, it's windows & the dog inside. Then phone the police. If the police take too long to respond I'd try & break the window.

You are more patient than me, and I guess you don't live in London. The response time of the police here is not what it should be  But I guess you are right, taking photos first would make sense, than you have got a defence in case of a lawsuit  |

I don't live in London now, but I did,for many years.
Photos are a must to protect yourself & prove the dog is suffering. That takes, what, 30 seconds? Then phone call - if they don't answer within a couple of minutes break the window.
As much as you want to help the dog, you still have to protect yourself!

You are of course totally right caryll - me and my impulsiveness, but I cannot see a dog suffer and do nothing about it!
