CLEARLAKE, Calif. -- Forget cats and their nine lives.
A dog named Dosha is showing she's a survivor as well.
In the course of one day last week, Dosha survived being hit by a car, being shot in the head and being stuck in a freezer for two hours.
It all started when a car hit her. A Clearlake police officer said no one at the scene could tell him who Dosha's owner was so he shot her in the head to save her the pain of the injuries.
The dog was presumed dead and taken to Animal Control, where she was put in a freezer. About two hours later, a facility official went to the freezer and found Dosha alive -- but cold.
Animal rights groups have begun raising money to pay for her care.
