He was scared she was going to get hit, as cars were swerving around her to miss her, so he opened up his truck door, and she jumped right in :). Darcy wrote a blog post about it, if you click under our avatar, you can find it.

We posted ads in the newspaper, and notified all the groomers and vets in the area about her. She was not microchipped, and had no collar or tags. Only one person came to the house to see her, and she was not hers. We took her back to the area later in the day and knocked on all the doors in that neighborhood, no one claimed her or recognized her. It is a mystery how she got in the road at that time.

She was panting very heavily, and her belly was very swollen (as you can see from the pictures). I took her to our vet the following day, and found out she had congestive heart failure. She has been on lasik every since. Recently she has begun taking prednisone for her collapsing trachea, and Vasotec for her heart. Our vet theorizes she was too expensive to take care of, and she was dumped. I will never know for certain, we have just done everything we can to make sure she has the best life now.
