Oh Jess I know exactly how scary this is - we have had it happen twice! The first was our dear Terra - we were doing 100km and hour in the old hilux & she was on James' knee while he was driving (naughty I know but that is where she liked to sit & he didn't mind) she leant too far out the window over James' arm & out she went...thank go my dear hubby's reflexes are so good & he caught her before she hit the ground! The second was Jack's dog nipper, just after she was first joined (which didn't result in puppies) at 70km an hour. I was not in the Hilux with James this time as he had just shot into town to see my cousin & was on his way back...she did the same as Terra & leant too far out the window & James didn't catch her - she had a few very minor scrapes but was otherwise fine. I think James has now learnt not the let the dogs lean out so far these days!

xxoo

Thanks every one, dogs fine and so am I.. I think I was to dumbfounded to believe it happened to be upset.. But lets just say I am more then happy the cord was not long enough for him to go under the car, and second that there were no cars behind me.. He was a little shaken but other then that he was raring to get back in today to get to play with his friends... 

But all is well with Murray...

ok I know it's not funny that the dog hurt himself but the rest of it is hillarious. I can't stop laughing at the pictures in my head!

omg Jess! I am glad he is ok. How are you?

Oh my god what a shock to the system! You are so lucky that you werent going fast!

What a fright Jess

So glad he is ok !!!

How scary for you Jess........I know if it were me I would have been pretty upset by it. It's happened to my MIL a few times. I'm glad he's ok and I'm sure he's going to enjoy the TLC.

 I wouldn't of been funny from your point of view but if I'd seen a dog jump out of a car window, I would of cracked up LOL

Glad he is ok. He'll have to be a back seat driver from now on!!!

I'm sorry Jess, but that is way funny! lol.  Hhhhhmmm, someone should have told him that it is bad manners to climb out the windows and that there is a door there!!!!

Glad he is ok.  Just a word of warning though, he might start peeing in the car all the time now as he had a traumatic experience.  You have to get his confidence back and maybe get a harness so that next time he doesn't choke himself!!!!

After reading the other comments I don't feel like such a sadist for laughing, and I mean really laughing....  Oh poor Murray I'm sure he won't be doing that again.....  I have power windows to but I can lock all except the drivers so my Molly is pretty safe when she is up flapping in the wind....  Well thank god you were not going very fast and Murray lives to see another day back to stealing toys from Francis pmsl xxx

aww poor doggy i hope heh is ok now poor thing  bet he wont do it againb in a hurry LOL

What a smart Dog. I have had cats that have jumped out the car window before. they wernt that smart.
He proberly saw something he wanted.

Glad you and the Dog are ok

Oh Jess!  OMG, I am laughing so hard, but I was worried when I read the title.  Poor DOG!  Perhaps you should get him a seatbelt harness so that he can sit firmly in his seat and be safe in a crash (and not fall out windows).

Oh my goodness.. I had a little laugh.. I shouldn't of.. It was kinda funny but thankfully you were not speeding!
Thankfully, he's alright. You're right, that's the main thing! I'm sure he will have a sore neck in the morning too!!
How did hubby take it when you told him that the dog fell out the window??
I would of been crying, shocked and stopping as quick as I could (like you!!!)

Let me know how he's doing.. Poor Murray!! :(

Glad he is alright. It has happened to my brothers dog too and my ex-husbands and in both cases they were lucky and the dog was O.K. I was going to say it was lucky that it didn't go up the other way but you have already experienced that. LOL Oh well all I can say is.......kids and animals, hey? Glad he is fine. Bet that gave you a nice adreneline rush! LOL
