You are in a Burger King Drive through at lunch time in July, and notice this scene:
What is your reaction?
Call the Police
Note water and shade, and continue on with your business
Enter establishment and confront the person who the dog and van belongs to
Cut the lead and take the dog with you

At least he wasn't in the van. Looks like they left him some water and put him in the shade.....but if someone were to feed him anything from the BK that would be animal cruelty.

Dog has water, looks somewhat relaxed. But, what the hell is he/she tied up with? Is that string/rope tied around his neck? Does he/she have a collar on? My last question is how long will the dog be there? If it's 5-10 minutes... Yeah, ok. Longer than that, someone needs an arse whoopin.
And, I answered "Enter establishment....." It's too damn hot out there to just continue on about your business.
Rope looks tight. I'd enter establishment.
I left my lab in the car for 20 minutes or so a couple weeks ago. Windows cracked and engine running with full AC pumping through front and rear vents. Keyless entry is great for this reason.
Go Tigers!!!
I am pretty sure I have covered all the options. If I have left any out, I will go back and add one.
I made the poll private, but please...if you vote explain your vote. Genuinely curious. This is more of a practical vs. emotional experiment than it is to determine what I would or wouldnt do.

The dog looks content. I'd definitely lengthen that rope though.
Rope looks a little tight but they had the foresight to park in the shade and provide the dog with water. The dog also does not appear to be hot (no tongue hanging). I would continue about my business given what I see in this picture. However I would not leave my dog like this simply because someone could whip in the parking space coming from the drivers side of the van and hit the dog and that is a lose-lose for everyone involved.
cut\'em
As noted: he looks contentNote water and shade, and continue on with your business
As noted: I would mind my own damn business
I would, however, probably have to go over and give him a little ear and belly scratch though.
Dog has what it needs, if the rope was tight it would get closer to the tire to provide some relief. Mind my business and good on them for providing water.
You can grow up to be just like me....
I was confronted by 340lb + woman one day coming out of the grocery store after I had literally 'run' in and grabbed a gallon of milk and was coming out. Had my dog in the truck. Something really crossed me bad about her flappin her flappy jowls about animal cruelty. At that point in my life, I spoke some unkind words to her. very. Unless you know what you are talking about, best to keep your flapper shut
It's a case by case.
Again, not knowing the full circumstances, why couldn't they just go through the drive through?
Do they work there and bring their dog to work like that every day?
Judging by the partial mess on the dash, are they living out of the van?
What happens when the elderly person in the boat sized Cadillac whips in and hits or runs over the dog?
What happens when the dog sees something that he want's to go after and he rips the mirror off the van and takes off?
Just a few of the questions that come across my mind.
The right to bear arms is the last form of defense against tyranny.
