Dogs and cats may have fur coats, but they still feel the cold. So many dogs die each year due to being kept outside in extreme temperatures.
Dogs are dying slowly and painfully, some even being found frozen solid after being left outside on a winters night.
But it's not just the cold weather, dogs are dying every day in the summer. Being killed from exhaustion and dehydration, being left in hot cars, being taken on walks in the blistering heat, being tied up outside with the sun beating down on them.
The law has already been agreed to be put into place in Pennsylvania. It will help protect dogs from suffering in the extreme weather conditions.
"The "Libre's Law" states that there will be severe penalties for those who chose to leave their pets leashed out in extreme weather for more than 30 minutes. The law goes into effect if the temperature dips below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0°C), or exceeds 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32°C)."
Please sign this petition to demand the law be brought in to the UK also.
These beautiful and compasionate creatures can't defend themselves, they need your help in order to save their lives.
