Staff heroes for saving dog from car

Re: “Hospital staff who helped dog suspended” (Montreal Gazette, Aug. 31)

What kind of society are we that we punish people who show compassion toward an animal in distress?

Four Quebec City hospital employees are suspended for bringing a dog into an airconditioned office after the animal was found stuck in a hot car.

Better to watch it suffer and possibly die?

Hospitals are always a source of germs.

Just clean the office used. These employees are heroes and should not be punished.
