Texas State bill in the works to protect Good Samaritans to save animals

Tweet

The Domestic Animal Good Samaritan Bill or it is called the "Hot Dog" bill is passed by the lawmakers in Texas would be a positive step to protect Good Samaritans from being sued if they break the window of an auto that has an animal that is trapped inside a hot car by the owner of an auto. The catch is that the Good Samaritan must contact the police to report the incident where an animal that is trapped inside an auto that needs to be rescued to break the window to save the animal. It is a step in the right direction in Texas for Good Samaritans to make their attempts to save animals who are stuck inside their owners autos during the hot summer months without facing a civil lawsuit from an angry owner who can sue for damages by the Good Samaritan to break open a window to save an animal from dying from heat. The police are allowed to break windows to save animals and children who are trapped inside autos at this time.
