Dogs left in cars in heatwave: how to liberate one without risking prosecution
#5
In USA "Only eight states — California, Colorado, Indiana, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Florida, Ohio and Tennessee — have “Good Samaritan” laws that allow any person to break a car window to save a pet.

California, Florida, Massachusetts, Ohio, Tennessee and Wisconsin — “Good Samaritans” must first contact law enforcement before breaking into the car in order for their actions to be considered legal."

 MO Law Says You Still CANNOT Break A Window To Save A Dog In A Hot Car | https://awesome923.com/mo-law-says-you-c...m=referral

In UK the law says this: "under the 1971 Criminal Damage Act, someone has a lawful excuse to commit criminal damage if they believe the owner of the property would consent to it under the circumstances. If you do smash a stranger's window in order to save their pet, you must be prepared to defend your actions."
