Indianapolis, IN – A German shepherd figured out how to honk the horn of a car after being locked inside for an estimated three hours in the heat. As reported by WISH TV, another dog, who was tethered to the floorboard with a weight, did not survive.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers responded to the Intown Suites Hotel after the manager heard the vehicle’s horn and discovered two dogs and a cat inside of a parked Chevrolet sedan.
The owners of the animals, 53-year-old Charles Thomas and 74-year-old Norma Light, were arrested and booked into the Marion County jail on multiple charges, including felony animal cruelty and misdemeanor animal cruelty.
The German shepherd, Abby, was adopted by Public Safety Officer S. Poe. The cat survived but it is unclear if the feline has been adopted yet or not.
The dog who died was a pit bull named Masus. Rest in peace.
