When we had big(ish) dogs and had to leave them it was not so much of a problem. Judy (GSD x Lab) we had when we used a caravan, then she would generally come with us and if we left her at the car we would leave the back up (estate car) ad tether her so she could be inside or outside. We would also park either in the shade or we found she was fine with multi story car parks, in a safe to her space, still with the back open. Zoe (GSD X Whippet) we did not leave in a hot van. At Peterborough 2010 and other places we tethered her outside and gave her shade.
Izzy, we could not leave tethered, she would happily go with any dognapper (our others would have had something to say) so we work round her. Generally she comes with us, we have only left her in the van when we know it will not get too hot (ie it is bloomin cold / raining / getting dark.
If we needed to be leaving vents open to dissipate heat rather than just refreshing the air ....I would already be thinking it is not a good idea. The thing is, she cannot let herself out. If something awful happened it would haunt me forever. Jane

it was showing 69 degree's int he Rv this afternoon... we popped to the local supermarket .. while away we left one of the big slide windows open with the fly mess .. window is an escape window so it is large.. and we had the Fantastic vent on as well to drag cooler air through the RV... Ezzie just snored until we got back.. overcast in France this afternoon, but a tad warmer than the UK.. slight breeze /wind.. had a spot of rain earlier..
