Animals: Today, I left my dog in the car while I quickly ran into a store....

Today, I left my dog in the car while I quickly ran into a store. I came out to a woman smashing at my window, screaming that it was too hot in the car for the dog and saying I was being inhumane. The car was still running and the air conditioning was on. FML

Today, I left my dog in my car for 5 minutes while I ran into a store. The car was running so he was fine, the thing that wasn't so fine is that when I walked out my car wasn't there. My dog somehow moved my car into the middle of a intersection, almost causing an accident. FML

Awkward…

Today, my mom and I were going to the store. I stayed in the car while she went in. In the car next to me, there was a dog in the driver's seat barking at me. Bored, I barked back at it until I realized there was someone in the passenger's seat watching me. FML

Road rage

Today, while in the car with my mom, we accidentally ran over a dog who had sprinted into the road. Instead of stopping, my mom continued to drive as if nothing happened. Every time I tried to bring it up, she merely talked loudly over me. FML

Today, I yelled at my dog for waking me up growling and barking out the window. He was doing it at the person stealing my car. FML

Today, I saw a young child passed out unattended in a hot car so I smashed the windows to rescue him. After waiting with him for 30 minutes, his mom came out and called the cops on me. I officially have a probation violation and the mom went home free. FML

Today, I was sitting in a parked car. A woman was having difficulties maneuvering out. She honked the horn repeatedly for me to move, then looked me in the eye and called me a "f**king bitch", before driving off. I was in the passenger seat. FML

Today, I got locked out of my car while the engine was idling. The "good news"? My dog inside the car thought this was the funniest thing ever and barked happily every time I tried to open it. FML

Today, I ran to my car and zoomed to work to avoid being late. I was in such a hurry, I forgot to close all my windows. When I got back to my car, I found a dead squirrel inside. FML

Today, I went to pick up my dog from the vet after she had surgery. I somehow managed to lock my keys, my purse, and my dog in the car. FML

One day, I picked my dog up from the vet, & I had to stop at Walgreens on my way home. I left the car with all the windows open, & I was in the store for just 5 mins (not a min longer), & I came outside to a lady about to call 911 on me. Crazy people!

OP sorry bout the woman, but why leave the car on, with the keys. That's an easy way to get your car(AND dog) stolen 0.o

OP never said the keys were in the car. Many cars now have autostart in which the car can be completely locked an alarmed while having such amenities such as heat or a/c on.

You do realize that a lot of cars, even cheaper ones have remote door locks now. You can leave the engine running but keep the fob with you to lock and unlock the door.

Fyl, but leaving animals in the car during summer is a hot topic this year. There's tons of posts showing how drastic the temperature change is inside the car compared to outside. It's a pretty scary difference and she probably acted before checking to see if the car was on. Really, unless the animal appears to be overheated, you're supposed to wait 15min for the owner. Then if they aren't back, you're supposed to call 911 and ask what to do.
