A dog-loving cop, saved the life of a little puppy who was left in a very hot car in a mall parking lot in Pensacola, Florida. Officer Anthony Giorgio had been dispatched to the mall for two reports of dogs locked in parked cars. On the first call, owners returned to their car the same time the officer arrived, but the second call, the officer took matters into his own hands.
“I’m putting my hands in the window, I get on the radio and call my sergeant and he tells me to get in it,” Giorgio said. The puppy’s faint barks could be heard coming through a cracked window. Thankfully its SOS was heard. Giorgio took a baton to the passenger side window, smashing the glass to pieces and was able to unlock the door of the car. None of the glass got on the puppy because it was tucked away under the back seat. Once he pulled the puppy out, the mall parking lot crowd came to help.
The puppy was given water, put in front of AC in the patrol car, and then eventually put on ice. It survived. The puppy’s owners were cited by Escambia County Animal Services. “The dog was returned to them because it was such a young puppy that we just wanted to make sure it got back with its mother where it would be OK,” said John Robinson, division manager with the Escambia County Animal Services. The owners were given a civil penalty for Cruelty to Animal, a fine that carries $150 for first offenders.
Robinson explains if the dog died, they would have faced criminal charges. He adds they are very lucky it did not. “I’ve seen pictures of the puppy. I haven’t seen it personally,” Robinson said. “The size and the age, it’s pretty lucky it’s still around.” According to PETA, on a 78-degree day, the temperature inside a car parked can reach up to 120 degrees in just minutes. WEAR reports that if the puppy stayed in the car any longer, it likely would not have survived. Giorgio said he was not going to let that happen. “I have a couple of dogs at home,” Giorgio said. “I do, I do love dogs.”

Why aren't these stunning and brave poc going to jail
These lazy, ignorant pieces of shit. They need to be banned from owning pets forever. Probably more concerned about the broken window than the fact they almost killed their puppy.
I feel really sad for that puppy been with does unresponsible people. Thank God the police man was able to get the dog out. People is so cruel😑😡 can't belive who would do such thing to a dog honestly 😑
I say put both of them in a hot car for the same amount of time and let them see how it is! POS'S don't EVER need a dog! ðŸ˜
Those people should be charged, fined and never own another pet.
I hope they didn’t get the puppy back because what they did was wrong that puppy is too young
Wtf is wrong with people they should be arrested
These people are what’s wrong with the world!
Please don't give them the puppy back, I can imagine what kind of parents they'll be, Ridiculous and Irresponsible Asses!!!!
The Police are hero's. God bless them for saving this puppy. All this talk of Police defunding is utter bullshit, we need more Police Officers like this one.
The damn nerve of that clown having an attitude. He needs to be arrested and charged with animal abuse and the dog confiscated
Take the owner, lock them in a hot car in the middle of a parking lot with no shade……..and forget about them…….end of discussion. Done deal. They can pay all vet bills, no dog given back to them.
I'm sorry, but this is reckless endangerment. If this was a human child, they'd be facing some serious charges. That puppy is a defenseless living being that requires protection. It is not some stuffed animal toy that can be treated with such terrible disregard. Not only should these people have to go to animal court, but face a big, fat fine, and be banned from pet ownership for a year or two to make them realize owning a pet is a privilege that comes with responsibilities. I can't believe they are so callous and irresponsible. Why own a dog if you're only going to ignore its needs? Get a stuffed animal!!
..
Thank god you got the little guy out of the car, no one should allow to leave a puppy in a car and an hour that’s long for a dog to be in a car.
I hope the owner got a fine for leaving a puppy in a car so long with no cold water to drink In and I hope they never had the poor pup back
I’m from the uk, I find this outrageous and also I have reported a dog in a car with the window shut
This Puppy. Belong. . to bis mother and Not in the Car. for a to. Long. . Time. 😡😡😡
They sitting there looking like DUMB AND DUMBER! Idiots!
5 years jail. Period.
I absolutely 100% with you
Please police save the poor puppy
They should never be allowed to own an animal!!!
Thanks to the officers that saved that poor baby!
They don’t deserve a dog.
Poor baby. May he go to a home where he won’t be forgotten.
OMG!!!! Please submit the names of those people through all social media…DO NOT ALLOW. THEM TO EVER OWN ANOTHER ANIMAL!!!
Thanks to the police for rescuing that tiny innocent life.
Que mal filmado que está todo…
Thank God you were able to save him ðŸ™â¤
They should of never had that puppy in the first place out in the heat inside a car I hope they didn’t get him or her back.
Evil ppl. Too young to be separated from it's mom too
Stupid people do stupid things, luckily the puppy (who is too young to be taken from mom) was saved by these people & the police officers.
Poor little baby. So glad people noticed, called the cops & he rescued it so fast. I hope the cop now has 3 little dogs at home! Scum like that should be banned from ever owning a pet, even a spider or a goldfish!
He still just doesn’t “get it†that dog could of ended up with brain damage. Surely theres been enough publicity around this subject.Neglect needs consequences and education
They are so cold hearted and still want the pup. My prayers They should not get any pet.
Idiots think a cracked window is enough for an animal. Even arguing with the cop about it, just shows what jerks they are.
Ignorantes, infames, estupidos serán porque son…….
And they don't get the dog back
Take them both to jail it is a felony charge
I have new found respect for police now
Garbage piece of shit people at their finest
Wow..first off…the no puppy is to young not to be with it's mom. Second…those people are to damn stupid to own any pet.. ever. Who would even accept a puppy that young never mind leaving it in a car alone. Stupid stupid stupid. Self centered low lifes. Period
