“They were panting, shaking, scratching at the window trying to get out,” Andrew Muzsall told Inside Edition.

They tried to break a window and were ultimately successful after swinging a golf club at the glass.

Inside, the dogs were in pretty bad shape. One was lying on its back, overcome by the heat.
