No, it will not. Fans move air around, they do not lower a room's temperature. The way they work is by evaporation on sweat, which causes a loss of heat. Since a dog only sweats through its nose and paws, a fan will not cause much, if any, heat loss.

If you can put something frozen in front of the fan, it may help to move the cooler air toward the dog. You may try getting the dog wet and then putting the fan on him. But you will have to continually re-wet the dog.

What controls the condensor fan motor on a 1996 ford crown Victoria?

Do you mean the electric fan ? If so, it will turn on with the a/c, on demand. It will also start up if the engine temp. gets a little high. In the mean time, the clutch fan will do the work. When the electric fan starts up, since it is so strong, it will cool the clutch fan, and the clutch fan will work in a minimal stage. There is a sensor for the electric fan in the engine. Just follow the wire. It would be good to have it replaced.
