I was recently in an accident and I unfortunately had both of my dogs in the car with me. I was driving home (only two blocks away) when a man ran through a stop sign and hit me. He was speeding too and when he hit me, he hit so hard my car went into the other lane. My pitt bull thankfully only thumped against the back seat and was fine. My schnauzer was not so fortunate, he went flying (from the back seat) and hit my windshield hard. Having hit my head very hard I was pulled out of the car and taken into an ambulance immediately, the whole time I continued asking to see my dogs. When I was finally let go ( I got a confusion) I found them with the police officer on the scene. He was unbelievable kind to them he had even bought them water since it was a hot day. The schnauzer had a limp for a few days but the vet said nothing was broken( thank goodness!). I am eternally thankful the police officer was there to help both me and my dogs, he got them out of the car safely and comforted them the whole time I was gone. He was especially kind to the pitt bull which I think gave me more hope considering all the terrifying videos you see of police officers shooting dogs. I am so thankful that neither my dog or I was hurt during this incident.
