Bash a stray dog on the Italian highway at 70 MPH and you'd think the least you could do is pull over and take a look at the damage, but Marco Menozzi didn't even bother with that. Fifteen miles later he discovered the dog had survived, wedged into the smile of his Peugeot 207 with a broken leg and some bruising, but alive nonetheless. After a trip to the vet, the dog is on the mend and authorities are looking for a home for the pooch. Although we would have enjoyed this story more if it had been a Pug stuck in a Pug, we still suggest the eventual owners call him "Fortunato." Click here for a better look at the pup in the Pug.
