This darling little girl was hit by a car on I-285 this week.

Amy Ryan, the organizer of the dog's fundraiser page, said that nobody was stopping and she couldn't get up. "An amazing woman pulled her car over and ran into traffic and grabbed her to get her out of harm's way. The pup needed immediate attention and she needed help. Her femur is broken in two places and she needed to have surgery in the next few days to save her back leg. She's only 6-7 months old and just as sweet as can be. "

The dog, named Jade, needed emergency surgery on Thursday at Clairmont Animal Hospital. "We almost lost her a few times on the table, but Dr. Smith and his assistants stayed by Jade's side and pulled through a miraculous surgery," said Ryan.

If all goes well, Jade will have her broken femur fixed on Saturday. "She was wagging her tail and giving kisses this morning."
