Dogs And Handheld Infrared Thermometer

I keep a handheld thermometer in my car at all times. This gives me a quick way to test how a dog is doing as well as the condition of the surfaces we are going to be using. 

We wear shoes, so we can't feel how cold or hot the roads are. We can't visually tell how hot it is in a vehicle. We can't easily check on a dog to see if the temperature in a crate or kennel is within a safe range. We can with this device.

Such a tool is an essential for dog rescue volunteers. You can check on the welfare of dogs in a variety of circumstances, even if you are looking over a wall, or looking into a locked vehicle with a dog inside, and wondering how a dog is doing, so if the dog is in danger you can call the authorities. 

This is the type of Handheld Infrared Thermometer I own and use...
