On Saturday, November 5, government-owned People's Television posted a video on Twitter showing a dog on a leash being dragged by a moving SUV along a Metro Manila highway.
The leash appeared to be secured inside the vehicle. Those who viewed the video speculated that the dog may have been placed on the backseat of the vehicle and had jumped out.
"The 28-second video shows the dog being dragged behind the SUV. The dog struggled to keep pace with the vehicle but its speed was too much for the pet of fluffy breed," reports Inquirer.net.
PTV revealed in a follow-up tweet that motorists called the SUV driver's attention. Fortunately, the vehicle stopped and the SUV driver promptly put the dog back inside the vehicle.

Let's hope there are no more mishaps for the poor dog.
