...Just 12 months previously, Donna, her husband and son were walking their dog across the picturesque Overtoun Bridge in Milton, near Dumbarton, Scotland.
Without warning, Ben leapt over a parapet on the century-old granite bridge and fell 50ft to his death on the rocks below.
'His paw was broken, his jaw was broken and his back was broken and badly twisted. The vet decided it wasn't worth putting him through the pain, so we had to let him go,' recalls Donna.
Kenneth Meikle can sympathise with the Cooper family because he, too, has had to watch in horror as his golden retriever, Hendrix, leapt from the same bridge at virtually the same spot...

Interesting theories. But still awful and creepy.

and this is why no matter where you are, no matter how loyal your dog is, LEASH HIM!

I've heard of something like this BEFORE...
...But it was well over a year ago...
I can't remember if it was at the same location, or somewhere else...
but, I have heard of Dogs (or other pets) jumping off to their doom at a particular location before...
This sounds like the movie: "The Happening" , but only with pets.
Yes, Very Creepy...
and Very Sad too.
If so many dogs have mysteriously jumped over the last 50 Years...
Why hasn't anyone put up warning signs?
I'm sure that most people who love their pets, would NOT walk their pets over this bridge, if they knew this might happen...
GOOD!
