PUBLIC ADVISORY – SUMMER PET SAFETY
In recent days, members of the Winnipeg Police Service have responded to reports of pets being left unattended inside vehicles during the daytime heat.
For the safety of all pets, the Winnipeg Police Service would like to remind members of the public not to leave pets in parked vehicles for any period of time without proper ventilation or access to water. Even on a warm day with a vehicle parked in the shade and windows slightly open, extreme temperatures can be reached which can have a devastating impact on any animal.
If you observe an animal in a parked vehicle this summer, and are concerned for it's well-being, notify management of the business closest to the vehicle in attempt to locate the owner as soon as possible. If required contact police.
Let's keep our pets safe.
