A Golden Labrador was allegedly left locked in a motorhome for three days before police opened a window to rescue him

Police responded to a call around 1.15pm on Sunday afternoon after concerns were raised for the welfare of a dog in a vehicle which was believed to have been parked for three days.

Reports suggested there were no open windows and no one had been seen in or around the van since it was abandoned
CoM Central Wards Chief Inspector Chris Boyd said: ‘It is simply not acceptable to allow a dog to be alone in a vehicle for even a few hours, let alone three days.
‘When we found it there were no windows open and as it is quite hot today it could have ended in disaster.
“Dogs don’t react to heat the way humans do and as such this lovely dog could have overheated.
“Even leaving a window open or a bowl of water is not enough. Don’t leave your dog alone in a vehicle.
“If you plan to stray from your vehicle, don’t risk leaving your dog at home.”
