Frankly, I don't think the problem is pet owners being hassled by people noticing the pets shut in a car on the hot day. I think the problem is that animals die because people leave them in the car on a hot day. Why not pay attention to the real problem, as these police are doing?
It's becoming a real problem. The latter brings on the former. Most people are well reasoned enough to assess the situation properly. Break in or monitor and wait. Not all situations call for immediate action. I'd do the same thing if I saw a dog in a car on a hot day. Unfortunately more and more people see a dog in a car and immediately spring into an inappropriate response.
