Temperatures had reached 29c and the animal had been locked inside
Police officers smashed the window of a car parked outside a department store in order to rescue a dog inside during the recent heatwave.
“The animal was clearly distressed and panting heavily, so we decided it was best to smash the car window and rescue the dog – it was then seized under the Animal Welfare Act and the owner spoken to" PC Zammit said. However, with temperatures expected to soar again this weekend, they have now issued a warning to pet owners to take care of their animals in the hot weather.
"Neighbourhood officers on the Stockport West team cover the Cheadle, Bramhall, the Heatons and Reddish areas with a focus on dealing with burglary, dangerous driving and drugs matters, which is what the public have told us they are most concerned about.
