Today, while visiting my old neighborhood, my fiancé and I witnessed a beautiful German Shepherd walking along Gattis School Road, dragging her leash. We, along with several others, tried desperately to corral her away from the road. As a truck approached, we tried signaling for the driver to slow down, but tragically, the dog was struck. My fiancé and I rushed her to an emergency vet a couple blocks away, but sadly, she passed just after arrival.
I’m not trying to place blame, but as a reminder of how quickly tragedy can happen. Please slow down and avoid distractions.
If the owner of this sweet girl sees this, please know that we did everything we could to save your girl and she was not alone. From one German Shepherd owner to another, my thoughts and prayers are with you❤️
