It’s hard to imagine a dog falling out of a moving car and not dying or at least being seriously injured. But, as hard as that is to believe, that’s exactly what happened to this German Shepherd who soon became known as “Freeway Frida”.
Frida was apparently seen falling out of a tuck on Highway 99 in Galt, California. Frida was definitely hurt by the fall, but not so hurt that she couldn’t survive.
She moved into the nearest bit of land that wasn’t covered with moving vehicles.

As you’re probably able to guess, that piece of land was the Highway’s median. There Frida lived for five weeks. But she didn’t live unnoticed. Officer Silvia Coelho said that calls poured into her police station every single day from people who spotted Frida trapped on that median.

For five weeks, though, Frida couldn’t be found. She somehow kept getting away from the police officers. Apparently she didn’t realize that they were there to help.
As of this Saturday, though, Frida was captured, and now she’s been brought to a vet where she can have her injuries properly treated.

She’s being treated at the VCA Bradshaw Animal Hospital in Elk Grove, California, and though she was clearly reluctant to be picked up by humans, she seems pretty happy to be around them now.
Maybe that’s because of all the loving attention that she’s been getting! No one has yet come forward to claim Frida, and if that keeps up, she’ll be put up for adoption, but this cutie won’t have any trouble finding herself a home.
