    I should have been more specific and less snarky. I think the risk scales with time frame.

    If we can leave our dogs in our houses for several hours, I think it’s reasonable to leave our dogs in cars for several minutes (assuming climate control). I felt “Never” was too extreme.

      The amount of energy from sunlight it takes to warm a car up to a dangerous levels is far lower then for a house.
