Only not the way you would you expect. The tweet contained a photo of a dog inside a car with a message that read: “Please don’t break the window. The A/C is on. He has water and is listening to his favourite music.”

He originally claimed the dog was named Kram and he was listening to Rihanna, but this later turned out to be fake. According toNY Mag, the prankster had just stolen the photo from elsewhere on the internet. However, this didn’t stop a host of hilarious memes that followed.
And for the record, we don’t condone anyone leave their animal in the car. But you have to admit the internet was funny with this one.
