Dog Survives Car Crash, Gunshot, Freezer
CLEARLAKE, Calif. (AP) -- A dog named Dosha may have as many lives as a cat.
She was hit by a car, shot in the head and kept in a freezer for two hours, but she survived and is now doing well under a veterinarian's care.
Local animal groups and the Humane Society of the United States have begun fund-raising efforts to pay for her care.
Last Tuesday, Dosha was hit by a car. A Clearlake police officer reported to the scene and no one could tell him who owned the dog.
Officer Bob MacDonald shot the dog, apparently to save her the pain of her injuries. Dosha, presumed dead, was taken to Animal Control, where she was put in a freezer.
About two hours later, Denise Johnson, Animal Control's interim director, was at the impound facility and was told of the incident.
"Apparently, it was assumed dead," Johnson said. "I went to the freezer and found that she was alive and cold."
She had hypothermia and a gunshot wound, but no broken bones from the car accident, Johnson said.
Police are investigating.

. Does anyone know what kind of dog it was? My guess is that it will turn out to be something like a chihuahua
