NEW YORK -- A dog that was rescued last month from a hot car on the Upper East Side now has a new home.

Police had to break a window to rescue the dog, who was locked inside a hot car for two hours. 

On Wednesday, the NYPD tweeted a photo of the pup headed to his new forever home. 

He's been adopted by an officer with the 19th Precinct who helped rescue him.
