When Carrie Underwood saw two dogs on the median of an interstate highway between Oklahoma and Tennessee, she momentarily took the wheel from Jesus and pulled over.
The country star was driving home from a visit with her parents over the holidays when she saw the injured pups, she shared on her fan club blog. Concerned for their safety, she stopped and went to help the pair.
"I had Ace and Penny [Underwood's own dogs] and a trunk full of luggage and presents in the SUV," she wrote on Dec. 30. When one of the injured dogs started wagging her tail, Underwood hoisted the "limping" and "bloody" pup into the car. The other dog, sadly, had died. "My guess is that the dogs were thrown out of their car by their owners on the highway."
