Vet locks dog in hot car

I heard about this at the park this morning and I just found it unbelievable.  Especially this part:  The director of the UC Davis Veterinary School offered his support for Freeman.  Yes, Davis Wilson the Director of the UC Davis Veterinary School offered his support for the veterinarian who endangered the life of her dog. 

This is the article:  UC Davis vet apologizes for locking her dog in hot car from the Sacramento Bee

Basically the Veterinarian went to the mall, left her young great dane in the car with the windows cracked open.  Mall security tested the temperature inside the car at 108 degrees and called authorities.  Not only did the Veterinarian leave her dog in the car but she was also argued with animal control about this situation.

I'm simply blown away that not only did she behave in a manner that is inconsistent with somebody who cares for animals but that UC Davis Veterinary School condones her behavior.
