Cop charged in police dog's hot car death - CNN.com
If it were you or I, we'd be charged with animal cruelty, so why not hold the same standards for an officer of the law?
Being cooked to death isn't a very fun way to die, human or animal. Your brain freaks out, you sweat profusely until you're dehydrated, your organs start malfunctioning. It simply isn't pretty. Couple that with dogs having a higher than human body temperature and they have a thick coat of fur, you can imagine the kind of agonizing death this animal had.
I won't even begin to explain how expensive these dogs really are as well. Training, equipment, officer's time involved, etc, can really add up. I wouldn't be surprised that a police dog can run the same amount of money as a new car.
