A border collie that crashed a Jeep into a parked car is still a ‘very good dog’, her family say

A border collie that crashed a Jeep into a parked car is still a ‘very good dog’, her family say.

But the mishap means she will no longer get to ride up front – instead she will be banished to the boot.

Sue Brewer, 60, said the pet Freya was ‘absolutely fine’ after the smash this month. 

Doorbell footage revealed that the six-year-old dog had been at the wheel of the family 4×4.

Mrs Brewer said Freya, her daughter’s dog, jumped into the front seat and knocked the automatic gearbox into ‘drive’ – sending the vehicle down hill. 

Shaun Waller, 34, was working when he heard a bang outside his home in Gronant, north Wales.

He went to investigate and saw his neighbour’s Jeep Cherokee had collided with his parked car.

Mr Waller, an analyst, then watched his doorbell footage back and spotted Freya at the wheel.

Mrs Brewer, a housewife and grandmother of two, explained that the pet had accidentally put the car in gear.

She said: ‘I went to put Freya into the front passenger footwell… She jumped into the driver’s seat and knocked the automatic gearbox into drive. 

The car was on a slope – it rolled and crashed into the car opposite.’

Mr Waller said he and his partner found the incident hilarious and are not bothered about the damage to their old car.
