Dogs Can Die Chained in the Sun


For a dog confined to a pen or chained outside without shelter, the sweltering heat and raging storms of summer are more than just miserable: They can be life-threatening.

While we all believe that dogs deserve to live indoors and be treated like family, nothing makes a bigger difference to a dog who is forced to live outside than a sturdy house of his or her own—a place to lie down and retreat from storms and other extreme weathers like the heat wave parts of the US experiencing right now.

PETA’s “Angels for Animals” sponsors help give a sturdy doghouse to a “backyard dog” desperate for relief from the long days spent suffering under a blazing sun. PETA doghouses are built to last, with each one designed to give a neglected dog some shelter from summer heat and frigid winter weather for years to come.
