A dog who was left in a hot car has been adopted by the police officer who saved her.
Officer Jeff OโRear responded to an urgent call about a Chihuahua puppy left in a hot car at a shopping center in Kansas City, in the d.e.a.d of summer.
The puppy had been stuck in the car for nearly 2 hours with outside temperatures a whopping 110 degrees. The puppyโs internal temperature was an estimated 107 degrees.
When Officer OโRear and his fellow officers opened the car the dog was unconscious in his crate, lying on his back with his legs sticking up in the air.
OโRear rushed the puppy to a nearby pet store and after a night in a vet hospital, the puppy miraculously pulled through. His former owners were charged with animal c.r.u.e.l.t.y.
But Officer OโRear wasnโt done rescuing the dog just yet. He couldnโt stop thinking about the puppy he had helped save and decided to officially adopt him, much to the joy of his two daughters.
โI want to make sure that he lives pretty much a life of a king for the rest of his life because of what he went through,โ OโRear said. โI think weโll be able to provide that.โ
