How dreadful. Poor dog. Makes me want to swear! I know how you feel, so many times we needed a vet after surgery hours and they either won't pick their phone up, have it turned off or won't see you, they definetly won't come out to an animal. Like you we have felt sick and angry many times, and felt so helpless. The vets here are useless to be honest. We have used Happy Valley during early hours for a sick cat. He is the only one who will see an animal after hours but only if you go to him and then he don't do a lot as it is late.
If people weren't such ********* in their cars in the first place!! You know the deliberately aim at the animals a lot of the time. If the animal don't get out their way there is no way they even slow, let alone stop! I went to the shops the other day and in half an hour picked up two dead cats out of the road from different locations, still warm, and in quiet residential areas! We live in a cul-de-sac and have probably had 20 cats hit by cars at the entrance to the road over the last few years, even cats that are road wise!
We understand exactly how you feel and know you will never forget that poor dog or the suffering.
Take care, our hearts go out to you.
