Puppy drives family car into pond causing it to be written off

A three-month-old puppy ended up in hot water with her owner after driving the family car straight into a pond.

German shepherd Rosie was a little over enthusiastic following a walk around Bolicar Pond in Canton, Massachusetts, on Sunday and leapt straight into owner John Costello's car - which had its engine turned on.

The excited pup hit the gear stick, shifted it into drive and then fell onto the gas pedal sending the vehicle careering into the water.

No-one was hurt in the accident and Mr Costello later said: "The car went for a swim.

"We all did."

Canton Police Officer Robert Quirk said the car was a write-off after being completely submerged in the pond.

"The perp says she was just going with the flow of traffic," Quirk said in a Twitter post showing a picture of the puppy.

Awww. I was once sat in a hospital car park waiting for my son, in the next car was a cute, excitable dog jumping all over the place. Not sure what happened but it knocked the handbrake off and the car rolled back bumping two cars in the process.
I was rather pleased that I was next to it and not behind it.
I took it's reg and reported it to reception.
