Valley animal shelter closes its doors during extreme heat

With the mercury rising, so does the risk of heat stroke and other injuries due to record-breaking temperatures, and at the Arizona Animal Welfare League, they're not taking any chances. "Last year about the same time when we had the record-breaking heat, we also closed the shelter then for a couple days," Dr. Matthew Goetz said. "We're doing it again this year... keep all the animals indoors, keep them cool, really make sure everybody is safe."
