Unlike several states, including Florida, Texas has no specific laws to protect dogs in hot cars. But Texas Monthly reported in 2017 that a 20-year-old man in Manor was charged with cruelty to nonlivestock animals — a Class A misdemeanor with potential penalties of up to a $4,000 in fines and a year in jail — after police discovered an 8-week-old puppy locked in his car in a Walmart parking lot.

“There are 30 states that have laws either criminalizing the practice, explicitly stating that law enforcement can enter (vehicles) in these situations or provides Good Samaritan exemptions from any kind of prosecution, and Texas is not one of those 30 states,” said Laura Donahue Halloran, executive director of the Texas Humane Legislation Network.

Halloran said bills addressing the issue have failed in the past two sessions of the Texas Legislature.

“I can say without hesitation the entire animal welfare community is incredibly concerned, because obviously we are one of those states that almost year-round has some sort of inclement weather,” Halloran said. “A Good Samaritan law, I think, would be really essential in a state like ours that has such extreme weather.”

Walker joins a long list of athletes who have teamed with PETA to do videos, including Tyrann Mathieu, Chris Harris Jr., Alex Morgan, Christen Press, Metta World Peace, Ty Lawson and Candace Parker.

“We were so pleased,” Colley said of Walker’s performance. “Some athletes can get nervous on camera, and that was so not at all the case here.”

Besides running Walker’s video on the internet, Colley said PETA is working to have it aired on television stations in San Antonio, Miami and Reading, Pa., Walker’s hometown.
