The police officer decided to write her a ticket, and asked her to wait in her car is since, according to her, it wasn’t that hot.
The police officer called her “callous”. She called what he did “abusive”, but when the woman who admitted to leaving her dog in a hot car called a news station to complain, she ended up with a dose of karma instead.
KOB News investigated what happened and after the woman asked the news channel to look into her complaint against the officer, saying that he forced her to sit in the hot car she had left her dog in.
Officer Vincent Kreischer noticed a dog inside a parked truck at a grocery store’s parking lot in Truth or Consequence, New Mexico, with the temperatures outside of over 90 degrees Fahrenheit and confronted the owner.
The woman told him she only left the dog for 10 minutes, and began to argue with him about how hot it really was. But Officer Kreischer estimated that inside the vehicle would be 114 degrees after that length of time.
When he confronted her, he says she shrugged it off with a laugh and was “callous and carefree” about her dog’s welfare. That’s when he took action. He decided to write her a ticket, and asked her to wait in her car is since, according to her, it wasn’t that hot.
“You can wait in the truck and close the door you know, since it’s not that hot,” he responded. He observed, “She gives me an attitude from word one, and then she doesn’t want to close the door. So I’m like, ‘Oh, but it’s OK if your dog does.'”

Good for that police officer! I wished more would do the same.
this officer is a hero & should get an award for bravery....& the woman is an idiot & should not be allowed to own any animals forever....
Sweet! Kudos to the police officer.
Wish he had taken the dog- and made it so she can never own an animal again- she will do it again-
GOOD for the Officer. That woman is utter scum. She clearly has no regards to the safety of her Dog. She should not be allowed to own an animal if that is her attitude. The officer was factual and polite. YES she should be made to sit in the same car(with the dog removed) closed in for 10minutes or longer to understand the seriousness..yet even then its not comparable as the Dog is wearing a fur coat inthat extreme heat also. She is total utter scum.
Good for him. I like the way he made his point and was looking out for the welfare of the dog.
Thumbs up for the police officer to take action!!
I think people like this woman should not allowed to have pets at all, cause if they don't care for it to sit in a hot car, they don't care for other things as well either ... :-(
Love that Police Officer. Too many abusers get a slap on the wrist if that. It's time that animal abusers suffer the same tortures they subject these animals to.
Keep up the great work Officer!

great job officer
Well done to that officer! More people should be made to suffer whatever abuse they are doing to their animals!
The officer did good! When it's her, it's completely different eh?
She got off easy but I admire the PO for what he did and I hope the judges see it that way also. People who do this should share the same thing they put their animal through.
Good for the police officer.pretty sorry of the lady. With her attitude she doesn’t deserve a dog. She needs another ticket for lying
Good on the police officer. Next time rescue the dog - she’ll do it again.
good for the cop. she did not care about her dog one bit saying what she said, made her sit is car like a dog, such a scum, i hope the ticket was really high, going to the news made her look like an abusive owner which she was, i wish they took he dog away from he, she doesnt deserve to own an pet ever
A relative that lives there said that later, she filed charges of abuse/brutality against the officer. His bodycam put the lie to her words.
