They saved a dog and prevented a motorcycle accident. Sassari animal protection officers responded quickly yesterday at the intersection of Campanedda and the Strada dei Due Mari when the lost animal ended up in the middle of the road.
His movements endangered a motorcyclist who was passing by at the time, but luckily she managed to stay on her bike only at the last moment.
Officers Manuel Chessa, Sandra Mura, and Laura Casu, following a report from the local police, managed to recover the dog, preventing further danger on the road.
Numerous witnesses witnessed the incident, including several tourists. The animal was then safely taken to the shelter by the same animal protection officers, who daily undertake complex rescue and recovery operations for pets, in collaboration with the Environment Department of the Municipality of Sassari.
