SPCA exec's dog dies after being left in hot car
The 16-year-old dog dies of kidney failure after being left for four hours
updated 2:56 p.m. ET, Wed., Aug 26, 2009
RICHMOND, Virginia - An executive for an anti-animal cruelty group says her 16-year-old blind and deaf dog died after she accidentally left him in her hot car for four hours.
Robin Starr, the CEO of the Richmond Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, says she didn't realize "Louie" was in the car until noon. Starr's husband, Ed, told the Richmond Times-Dispatch he put the dog in her car as she got ready for work Aug. 19. She often took the dog to work with her.
Robin Starr took the dog to two clinics, but he died of kidney failure.
I met Robin a few times and she has done an an amazing job of buidling a beautiful training facility and well staffed pet rescue with free spay/nueter clinic

this was a terrible miscommunication,

Not to mention being one of the most outspoken critics of that person whose name we don't say here (sounds like Michael Dick)...
My heart aches for her and her husband. She is indeed a wonderful person, and this has to have been the most horrible thing in her life.
What a tragedy for all involved, from that poor dog, to her, to her husband who put the dog in the car.
