Can’t my dog just stay in my car?

State law prohibits securing an animal in the car under conditions that would adversely affect the animal’s health - as in a car parked in the sun with the windows rolled up.  Town of Eastham Beach Rules and Regulations state “No animals or pets will be permitted on the beaches, in the parking areas, or in vehicles in the parking areas at any time during the period of June 15th through Labor Day.”
