A miracle pup clung to a speeding car for more than 15 miles after being knocked down.
The motorist, Marco Menozzi, didn’t even stop when he mowed down the one-year-old pooch while doing 70mph on a side road in Cozze, southern Italy.
But he hit the dog so hard he was embedded in the grill under the bonnet of the Peugeot 207 and managed to cling on until the car eventually stopped.
It just wasn’t this dog’s time yet.

I own a Peugeot 207 here in the UK, it has a 2.0 litre diesel engine and I have had it upto 120mph on the motorway (highway) and it still had plenty to give.
Also 4 adults easily fits into it and as it’s a hatchback there is still plenty of room for gear in the boot.
Plus I am currently getting an average of 60mpg.
Italians drive like crazy people.
Fake.
That dog is 20-30 lbs. Damage to the plastic grill would be massive.
fake
dog looks like a cat.
Does Sirius have anything to do with this storys timing…

Or I could drive a smaller more efficient vehicle and rent a truck/van when needed instead of having a large vehicle on the off-chance that I’m hauling 6 people around with tons of material in the back.
Unless you go camping every weekend there is no reason to drive a huge vehicle.

I had a friend who hit a small metal garbage can at 40 mph. It did a number to the plastic on his grill. A dog hit a plastic bumper and grill at 70 and there is minimal damage?
OK.
I do subscribe the comments of at least 2 of the users above…If the story isn’t one of the false silly jokes on the net, the only thing to say about someone who hits an animal and doesn’t even stop is that HE IS AN ANIMAL HIMSELF (hope animals will forgive me !)
has to be fake, but italian drivers are crazy.
especially those folks driving scooters..
And our bus driver the continuously pulled up to within about 10cm from smart cars.
#26 – I’ll allow you to own both and drive the dinghy around town. That’s barely acceptable though. What if you’re on the way home from work, the wife calls on a whim and wants you to stop off right away for a new refrigerator and two dozen sheets of plywood?
#29, SnotTooBright,
Ya tell her to pick the effen crap up herself with her Vespa. That is why they put a cargo pad on them. You’re not an errand boy!!!

If I were already out and about and she made a special trip, that would be wasteful of fuel. That’s bad for Mother Earth: Algore said so. You should really think about conserving more.
Lucky dog/not.
