Pug Avoids Surgery By Crashing Truck |
|
© South Bend Tribune
PLYMOUTH — A dog, possibly looking to avoid surgery, is being blamed for crashing a pickup truck through the wall of a veterinary clinic.
Kay Emond, who works at the Plymouth Veterinary Clinic, said the waiting room was empty about 7:40 a.m. Friday, when she heard a loud noise and looked up.
"I just saw this truck coming through the wall," Emond said.
Plymouth police officer Trent Shively said he arrived to find the 2004 four-door Ford F-150 completely inside the building’s waiting room, with the truck’s front bumper stopping against the clinic’s front desk.
"They’re lucky that nobody was in the waiting room," Shively said. "But they said somebody had been sitting there just 30 seconds earlier."
The truck’s owner, Kay Mutti, of Bremen, told police that she had pulled into a parking space when her dog, a pug, jumped off the seat and onto the gas pedal. Shively said Mutti was unable to step on the brake because the pug was in her way.
"It left some pretty significant damage," Shively said of the accident. "They had to knock down more of the wall to get the truck out."
Both Mutti and the pug were uninjured in the accident. Emond said the clinic was closed for about an hour and reopened with plastic sheeting covering the hole.
The pug, who could not be reached for comment, had been scheduled for orthopedic knee surgery.
Because of the crash, the dog’s surgery has been rescheduled for another day.
