There hasn't been a case where the pet has died, but that may change if this trend continues. A domesticated pet is dependent on the owner for proper care like food, shel- ter and water. On a day where the temperature is 26 degrees Celsius, the temperature inside a vehicle parked in the shade reaches 32 degrees Celsius while the temperature inside a vehicle in the hot sun can reach 71 degrees Celsius. The operating tem- perature of a sauna is 70 degrees Cel- sius - 90 degrees Celsius. The Criminal Code of Canada has sections that deal with the mistreat- ment of animals: Cause unnecessary suffering - maxi- mum sentence of 5 years in jail; Injure or endanger an ani- mal - maximum sentence of 5 years in jail; Neglect an animal - maximum sentence of 2 years in jail. Take good care of your pets, it's not just the right thing to do, it's the law. The South Bruce OPP is requesting anyone with infor- mation that can assist police to call 1-888-310-1122. Should you wish to remain anony- mous, you can call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or send a web -tip to crimestop-gb.org, where you may be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $2,000.
