Kicker - A dog in the driver’s seat

MYRNA BROWN, HOST: Megan Lundahl was hard at work in her Sturgeon Bay, Wisc. gift store when all of a sudden:

LUNDAHL: Voom! (laughs) A jeep just – bam! Right into the window, right into the shop.

A black Jeep Grand Cherokee jumped the curb and slammed into the side of the building. Fortunately, it wasn’t going very fast and nobody was hurt. 

But police say it was quickly obvious why the accident occurred. The driver of the Jeep, Callie, was only 5 years old! 

Also, she’s an Australian Shepherd. 

Police believe the pooch may have bumped the gear shifter while her owner was inside a nearby business.

But Lundahl told WBAY tv she’s taking it all in stride.

LUNDAHL: I have a shop dog that’s with me often, Carmen. And I told her that if she’s going to invite her friends over just to have them use the front door!

Enough said.

It’s The World and Everything in It.
