Dog Hit On Route 4, Animal Hospital In Bergen County Seeks Owner

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — A good Samaritan brought a female dog to Oradell Animal Hospital on Sunday after she was hit by a vehicle on Route 4, a hospital employee said.

Now the hospital is searching for her owner.

"This pretty lady was hit by a car on Route 4 in Hackensack," the hospital posted on social media on Sunday. "Unfortunately, she doesn’t have a microchip, and we have no information on her owner."

Still Not Found

A hospital representative said she's a Dachshund mix. As of Tuesday, they are still seeking her parents.

"She was brought in and had no microchip and no collar/harness to identify where she came from," said Sydney Broadbent. "Hopefully we find her owner soon! Otherwise, I believe we will take the steps to pass her onto an agency for adoption."

Broadbent said she had nine broken ribs, but is on the mend.

If you recognize the dog or have information, call the hospital at 201-262-0010 or you can message them on Instagram, Broadbent said.
