Dog survives plunge off 90-foot embankment

Wow - wish it was my dog and that I was the lucky owner getting free surgery for her. My dog injured her knee pretty badly and will undergo surgery tomorrow to insert a plate, for a cost of nearly $4,000. Those who love their animals and consider them a part of their family will understand why we are struggling to do this even at this cost. We did not have pet insurance for this, but we signed up for any future needs - just in case!

Amazing creatures, dogs! Surviving a 90-foot drop with only a broken leg and some scrapes; and the other dog mentioned in the article from four years ago apparently survived the same fall with no injuries at all!!

If only we humans were so nimble....
