法國鬥牛犬躲在車子後座的袋子底下，天氣熱到牠想找個地方乘涼，但是整台車內的溫度高達52度，無論怎麼躲還是熱到快昏了，動保團體OSPCA在車旁等了10分鐘不見飼主現身，二話不說直接破窗把狗狗抱出來送醫院，最後飼主依虐待動物罪被起訴。
動保團體Lincoln County Humane SocietyPO出一段影片，事情發生在7月21日，當時氣溫約25度，但體感溫度高達35度，一隻法國鬥牛犬被關在休旅車後座，熱到躲在袋子底下「乘涼」，雖然車窗微開，但一點作用也沒有，OSPCA用溫度計量，短短10分鐘車內溫度從41度飆高到52度。由於再等下去狗狗可能有生命危險，動保員立刻破窗把狗狗抱出來送醫院，而獸醫也發現狗狗確實正在發高燒。幸好經過治療法鬥漸漸恢復健康。
Lincoln County Humane Society表示，雖然各界一而再再而三宣導不要把狗留在車裡，但還是經常有飼主不以為意，而最後法鬥的主人也被依虐待動物罪被起訴。他們再三強調，千萬不要把狗留在車裡，動物容易熱衰竭，特別是短鼻子的狗如法鬥、巴哥與西施犬等，都更加容易熱衰竭而造成生命威脅。
While we continue to educate dog owners about the dangers of leaving their dog in a hot car, we will continue to effectively deal with those who don't. Today (July 21, 2017) it was 25 degrees out and feels like 35 degrees. Inside the vehicle, it was between 41 and 52 degrees. After breaking the window, the French Bulldog was removed from this vehicle and immediately taken to a veterinarian with an elevated temperature. The dog has recovered and is doing well. The cooperative owner was charged for this incident. Please watch this video and share it, with the message - No Hot Pets - please do not leave your pet in a hot car, ever!
