Lauren writes to us about a dog struck on Friday afternoon [1] at the intersection of Boulevard and Idlewood:

BROWNISH MIXED BREED MEDIUM SIZE DOG, BLACK COLLAR WITH TAGS HIT YESTERDAY AT THE INTERSECTION OF BOULEVARD AND IDLEWOOD AROUND 5:15

Yesterday on my way home from work, I saw a dog get hit at Boulevard and Idlewood. I pulled up to help the other pedestrians who had to drag the dog out of the road because he couldn’t walk. Several other people were trying to call the dogs owner but his voicemail box was full. I believe one of the women even text messaged the owner in hopes that he would get it. Since my car was right by the dog, I offered to put the dog in my car and take him to the Cary Street Emergency Vet Clinic. I didn’t even think to check the dogs collar because a minute or so after I drove off to take him to the clinic he started puking and dry heaving. And due to him being badly cut and scraped up, he was bleeding all over the seats of my car.
