A car's dash camera, traveling on I-70 in Colorado on Tuesday, captured every pet owner's worst nightmare: a dog jumping out of an open window in a moving car.
A group of vehicles were traveling slowly due to heavy traffic when the pup can be seen jumping from a backseat window of a Ford SUV. The dog tumbled a few times and stopped, stunned in the center lane right in front of the car equipped with a dash cam.
Mike Kannely, the driver with the dash cam, was able to stop his vehicle in time.
"I slammed on my breaks and was about to jump out, when the owner pulled over," Kannely told Viral Hog. "I was in shock."
After the dog owner pulled over, the dog regained its senses and runs over to the stopped car with a limp.
Kannely says he posted the clip online to show other dog owners that this can easily happen to them.
"It also made me realize how important it is for drivers to be paying attention," said Kannely, who was on his way home from see the new Star Wars movie. "Rouge One was pretty intense, so I was wide awake."
