[Summerlin]

for about an hour or more in the backyard. Are there any laws regarding this?
The dog's barking a few houses down and I feel sorry for it.

Summerlin, I doubt the cops are real busy in your neighborhood. Give them a call. Many municipalities have specific rules like 15 minutes constant barking, etc..I dog is entitled to bark; not continuously.
Tell the cops you are concerned that something bad is going on there. See who owns the house. Send the owner a letter.

Otherwise, ask me for my recipe for "Prestone Burgers." Yesterday in Richmond, Virginia, the head of the local SPCA left her doggy in the back of her SUV. They cited kidney failure as the cause of death.

Prestone Burgers (antifreeze)??? I'm concerned for the well being of the dog. I'm not upset at the barking.
I hope your kidding about the Prestone.

If you are referring to antifreeze, why don't you try it on yourself.

Summerlin must actually live in the part of "Summerlin" over by Fiesta.

I see dogs left out all the time and yeah, I feel really bad for them. I think most of them will be ok as long as they have good shade and lots of water (a pool is good for that ). Some dogs such as huskies will probably overheat since they have such a thick coat of fur, but I haven't seen one die yet of heat stroke.

I usually put mustard and onions on my hot dog.

I would try and talk to the homeowner, if that fails call the humane society- it is way too hot for any dog to be left outside

No, actually I don't.
However I may have seen you in your tutu, strutting your stuff at the ice rink at Fiesta.

Heatstroke isn't such a huge issue here due to the low humidity (assuming the dog isn't a bulldog or a similiar breed). As long as the dog has some shade and water it should be fine.

If you are haing a problem with the barking call animal control (I would not call over ONE day of barking tho...maybe the owners had a legit reason reason the dog couldn't be in the house).
