As responsible dog owners, we should know that during hot days our dogs can easily get hot and would need shade and a lot of water to rehydrate.

In Detroit, a dog dying of a heat stroke was saved by a news reporter and her friend who were passing by.

Reporter Kim Craig of 7 Action News and a friend of hers named Sandra Abrahamian were on their way to meet up with a man in Detroit’s east side to help him get ready for a job interview. But on their way, they saw a dog who collapsed on the street.

The owner was beside the dog. At first they thought the dog had been hit by a vehicle, but when they came over to help, the owner told them that her dog had collapsed after they walked a mile home. It was a hot day and the dog had trouble breathing and then he collapsed. He was dying of heatstroke.
