We checked the houses in the surrounding area including those some mentioned here and we were unable to find the owner.
Thanks guys!! Officers that showed up last night went above and beyond for her. Brought her to emergency vet on their lap in the back of the cruiser. She’s looking much better than last night. Shared!
Just an PSA to everyone so willing to adopt this dog cause it is a sad sorry....there are millions of sad stories in your local shelter....will it take the police to post them for you to go and adopt a sad story that sits with no home in your local shelter, which most probably have no idea where your town shelters are....
I will be happy to take the dog and give it a good home pls contact me if need be thru PM
Thank you PD for taking the time to probably saved this beautiful pup...
It’s about the dog people not your bickering back and forth.
So, I can be there in the am to rescue this pup.. have references, fenced yard, other rescued pups..please call me first thing!! 860-394-9516
You people going back-and-forth and badgering each other, please knock it off. This story is about a dog getting hit by a car and trying to find his rightful owners. Please have some respect. 🤦♀️
All—- a dog in this condition needs to be healed from the trauma and also on a mandatory hold to allow for his owners to come forward. It is then up to the ACO who the dog is adopted by. I see many people asking the Pd to reach out to them.. while that’s kind and all, that’s not the normal course of action or the law. Not to mention I highly doubt they have time to hop on FB and adopt a dog out...
Thank you so much for stopping & saving her life!! Y'all will be blessed!!!
Dont you think if the owner cared they would have called the police by now- this dog needs a rescue. And I’m not sure what the “ law” ( which are jokes for animal rights BTW) say about placing this dog in rescue but they should allow it after 24 hours.
Hope the heartbroken original owners are found. Geez, I’d be devastated to learn that more energy was expended discussing who’s first in line to take my dog then the energy expended to find out who she still actually belongs to 😢
check the house about 2 houses north of prospect hill dr entrance on the right side
He may belong to the 2nd house away from kettle brook on rte 5. I live on prospect hill drive and I believe I’ve seen him before in my yard
Thank you EW PD for your compassion and concern for an animal in need. You are heroes!
If no one comes forward (can't imagine why! Look at that little smoosh face!), the Long Island Bulldog Rescue is a great place to turn to for a home and rehabilitation!
Shared... also prayers being said for the kind Officers and the sweet pup!
Shared I hope for an update please
I am thrilled to see so many people want to give this dog a happy home. We need more of you all in Florida. Our animal shelters are over full and its so sad. My hat goes off to all of you!!
If the owner really had an interest don’t you think they would have come looking for their dog
Hope he is going to be good as new n his owners show up. Please keep us updated
Beautiful dog! I hope he/she recovers and goes to a loving, safe home.
Looks like he is going to be okay. Hope they find his owners. Prayers for the little guy.
EWPD do you need help funding veterinary care? What was the result of her being hit? Any fractures?
I think it’s Cane Corso Breed with those ears and face .. something to just know if placed.
Officers are currently investigating a car vs house collision on Main Street in Broad Brook. There are no injuries. Expect traffic delays in the area. Please use caution when driving tonight as rain is in the forecast. Slow down.

Slow down. The house didn’t jump out in front of you. 😡
She said her tires were bad ,I was walking in my house when it had happened she was doing 40 mph sideways across the grass when she hit the house
I've lost eleven vehicles in 18 yrs in that corner to hit and run drivers everyone knows it's a bad corner two schools within a mile still people fly by at 50 mph and give me a hard time for having to back in to my driveway.
Not only rain, but ICE also! Going to be a nasty morning commute........
Looks a bit strange to me
Simply put... amazing!!!! 😳🙄
Wow! Went really off road, smh

Faith, pictured below, was presented with an EWPD challenge coin today by Chief Ed DeMarco for her actions this morning that likely saved lives.
At about 10:30 AM Faith called 911 and reported she was with a drunk driver on the side of Broad Brook Road near Herb Holden and she was preventing the driver from leaving.
Officers arrived and learned that the drunk driver had cut in front of Faith’s car and then proceeded to cross the double yellow line numerous times on Broad Brook Road, almost causing accidents. The drunk driver turned off the road briefly to turn around and that is when Faith pulled her car in front of the drunk driver’s car and prevented her from re-entering the roadway. Faith was able to get the driver to put her car in park and turn the vehicle off as police were responding. The driver was eventually arrested by Officer Jones and blew nearly FOUR times the legal limit.
A strong partnership with the community is essential to public safety. When private citizens embrace the role of public safety as a shared responsibility such as Faith has done, East Windsor is a safer community for us all. We applaud Faith for being part of the #TownWideTeam

Not to be corny but Faith gives me faith in human-kind. No controversy, no agression, just helping people stay safe!! Thank you Faith for your good deed and your good soul. Thank you EWPD for not only getting that drunk driver off the road and, hopefully, the awareness she needs; but for recognizing an amazing citizen!!
That's my girl faith love ya
You are amazing Faith ❤️ there were school buses on the roads at that time today due to the delay. Thankful for your bravery and kindness 😊
God bless you for your bravery. Drunk driver's kill innocent people. Lost a niece to a drunk driver.
Thank you Faith for going above & beyond and to EWPD for a job well done.
10:30 in the morning!
Nice job! Officer Jones is the best!
Good work! I was near there today at the exact same time with my toddler in the car. Scary to think we could have been in her path.
Bless you, Faith, for the lives you probably saved this morning. That's not far from where people in my family live, and any one of them could have been on the road in harm's way this morning. Thank you! It was a brave and caring thing to do!
Like others have aid, GREAT JOB Faith! You did exactly what was needed to possibly save lives. Glad you were recognized for what you did. 👍
I could not be more proud of you today. A defining moment in your life for sure!
WOW!! Great job Everyone!! Faith, I am so glad you were there and were able to do this safely for both you and the driver. Blessings to you!! <3
Nice job Faith. No excuse for drunk driving. Always Uber if you want to get loaded.
Great job Faith !!! Very brave of you ...I'm sure you probably saved someone from getting seriously hurt if not being killed !!!
Hero! Above & Beyond! Glad it turned out with positive ending. East Windsor Police Dept. is terrific. I hope this drunk driver gets the help she needs. Go to rehab before you end up in Prison. Not drinking is a VERY cool thing.
Wow! Broad Brook Rd is no joke. People fly down that road. This could have ended very badly. Great job Faith! ⭐️
One more off the road, thank you.
Great job, you probably saved her life if not more
Great job, civilian hero! Along with EWPD!
Nice job. I have called myself two or three times!!!
So glad we have smart citizens and a great police department.
Very brave thing to do.
Great job Faith think of all the lives you saved and great job EWPD.
Nice job. Love when a community comes together.
Thank you, Faith, for potentially saving others lives.
