American Idol auditioner forgets dog in hot car... Simon Cowell warns of just that danger in PETA video...Coincidence?

The other day Unleashed told you about a pretty stupid guy, to say the least, who left his dog in the car while waiting with his girlfriend in line to audition for American Idol. The dog died. It was more than 90 degrees in Denver that day. Well, the animal rights group PETA has rushed into circulation a video featuring Idol judge Simon Cowell and his dog, Claude. In the public service message, Cowell talks about how he's "appalled" at people who leave their dogs in cars. Check the video out above.

About Jill Rosen

Jill Rosen is a reporter at The Baltimore Sun. During her nearly 20 years in journalism, she has covered news and features — including a surprising number of stories that involved animals. There were the dog Christmas carolers in State College, Pa. There were the hounds who toured with a production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The story of a preschool teacher at Baltimore’s Father Kolbe School who had to replace her class guinea pig, who died over the winter holiday. A harrowing tale of what it was like to make homemade pet food ...

Though her clean freak of a mother refused to allow her to get a dog, she has had a number of pets through the years, including goldfish named Bob and Fingle, a betta fish named Ichabod, a wild rat terrier named Wendel, who she shared with a roommate, and, currently, sweet, sweet kitties named Leo Sesame and Milo Pumpkin and a little rescued pup named Teddy Bean. She, Leo, Pumpkin and Teddy Bean live in Baltimore.
