So then she figured it was dead but wanted to get it off the road when she saw a SEMI coming – she got out waved her arms and STOPPED the Semi! Went to just get it off road sure it was dead – she bent down and it's eyes were open and blinking! So – she gathered it up and took it to vet (same as mine) – they stablilzed it and I guess kept it three days and it is recovering. It had NO broken bones but brain swelled up badly – after three days (and $600) they said – "well, you can take it home and take care of it" – it walks a little funny but is still recovering. Can you BELIEVE a 4.5 pound dog could survive being run over twice??
