A 3-month-old German shepherd puppy is being blamed for driving a family car into a Massachusetts pond.
The dog's owner, John Costello, said he took the dog for a walk around Bolivar Pond in Canton on Sunday, then got into the car and started it in preparation for the ride home. That's when the puppy jumped in with him.
"The dog just jumped into the car and hit the gear shift ... when she slammed it into drive she fell on top of the gas pedal,"

I thought only cats had nine lives. In one day this pup survived a car crash, a forced swimming lesson and didn’t get shot by the cop who showed up afterwards!

The dog just jumped into the car and hit the gear shift
What year car? Brake pedal has to be depressed in newer cars in order to engage the transmission.
I suppose the dog did that too ... right after he ate the homework.

I think they should re-name the dog “Teddy”.

Must have been an old vehicle. I thought the brake transmission interlock has been in them for many years. Either that or the dog was simultaneously pressing the brake when it hit the shifter.

I understand, now.
She wasn't wearing her seatbelt!
Bad dog!
Bad owner!
