Henry County Animal Care & Control is again stepping up patrols to be on the lookout for pets left in hot cars. “Operation Cool Down,” first launched in 2011, returns May 1, according to county officials. Any animal found unattended in a vehicle and in distress will be removed from that vehicle by Animal Care and Control officers by whatever means necessary, as permitted under Henry County ordinances. Violators of the ordinance may face fines up to $1,000 or 60 days in jail.
