I watched a dog get hit by a car last night. It was one of the most horrible things I’ve ever seen. The asshole who hit it took off as soon as it happened, leaving the poor dog with broken back legs to where it couldnt even drag itself off the road. We stopped, threw the hazards on and left the car in front of it so no one would just hit it again. Who the fuck do you call when something like this happens? There’s no 911 for animals and no one stopped to help. I ended up calling 911 to get a cop out since the dog was seriously hurt and wasnt letting me get too close. Once the cop showed up we were able to take a mat from our car and coax the dog onto it to carry it to the side of the road. Animal control was called but they were in no hurry to get there. The dog had no tags but was a well groomed decently sized Terrier of some kind, so it must have been someone’s pet. With the condition the dog was in, I wouldn’t be suprised if it were just put down to stop it’s suffering since there were no tags to ID it.
Fucking sad, and what kind of asshole just takes off when you hit something like that. The guy had to know he nailed it head on.
