Small Dog Drives Owner’s Truck Into Lake | PHOTO

A small dog was rescued from a truck after driving it into a lake, police in Maine said. The Ellsworth Police Department said that the dog drove its owner’s truck into the lake by knocking the vehicle out of gear.

The elderly owner of the truck told investigators that he had been walking the dog around Branch Lake on Saturday afternoon, and he put the dog back into his truck before the incident unfolded.

The dog hit the truck out of gear and it rolled across the parking lot and into the lake. The dog was rescued from the submerged truck by a woman who is a friend of the owner. The truck was removed from the lake, but the vehicle was deemed a total loss
