Dog Trapped in Hot Car Honks to Alert Owner - Pet Health | Questions | Information | Animal Health - FOXNews.com

A veterinarian said a dog trapped in a car on a 90-degree day in eastern Pennsylvania honked the horn until he was rescued.

Nancy Soares said the chocolate Labrador was brought to her Macungie Animal Hospital last month after he had been in the car for about an hour.

She said Max's owner had gone shopping and was unloading packages when she returned but forgot that Max was still in the car. She later heard the horn honking and looked outside several times but saw nothing amiss. Finally, she went outside and saw Max sitting in the driver's seat, honking the horn.

Soares said the owner immediately gave Max cold water to drink and wet him down with towels before rushing him to the clinic.

Soares said Max was very warm and panting heavily but had suffered no serious injuries, only heat exhaustion.

Did she think her horn was honking by itself?

Ok, this seriously has me laughing so hard. Can you imagine what the dog was thinking? I'm glad the dog is smarter than the owner.

His owner was probably one that has a tendancy to overuse their horn when in transit. He learned it from watching her. LOL
