AR-News: (US) Palm Beach officials propose new law to protect unsupervised dogs in the sun

[Animalconcerns Info]

Aiming to ease the suffering of animals in the summer heat, Palm Beach
County is preparing to make it illegal for dog owners to leave their
animals tied up outside unless an adult is home.

Violators would be subject to fines, while the worst offenders could lose
their animals. A provision in the proposed law lets animal control
officers seize a dog if they find severe circumstances.
