[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I wouldn't assume the driver tired of waiting and ran over the dog. If the dog was small, it's possible he didn't see it and/or thought the dog cleared his car.

Can't imagine anyone committing this crime and then leisurely driving away (while folks could easily write down his license plate number).[/quote]

Agree. OP, you may be jumping to conclusions. Little dogs are not easy to see, and unless the driver purposely swerved to hit the dog, nothing can be proven. Yes, it's sad, but it may not have been a deliberate act. I'm not sure what you expected the police to do.

Also, the owner has a responsibility to control the animal. Obviously, if it was running away from the owner and wasn't responding to verbal commands, then the owner is mostly at fault, here. [/quote]

The dog was being walked by a neighbor, not the owner. There are at least two witnesses to whatever happened: the OP's husband and the neighbor walking the dog. At this point, let's just let them get in touch and take things from there rather than trying to adjudicate it here.

Isn't this what we do with every other incident in the area? Why on this topic can we not speculate? [/quote]
