[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 453738, member: 1233"] You did ALL that you could safely do. It feels awful to hit an animal, but as he walked off there was likely no serious injury. I have seen deer hit by cars where the car was totaled and the deer walked away unhurt. Course this was a dog, not a deer, but you couldn't safely do more. It is NEVER safe to get a strange dog into your car. It is one thing to take that chance if it is just you, an adult, but with a child in the car it would have been irresponsible to get the dog into your car. You did the right thing. By slowing down so much you made it so the dog likely was not hurt seriously, if at all, and you stopped to check. Some dogs just have no sense about cars. [/QUOTE]
