I hate seeing dogs on the highway, it breaks my heart.

In the past I have called the police, I have called the humane society. I once tried to stop to help a dog, which only scared it, and made matter worse. Not to mention risked my life.

Today I saw a beautiful boxer/pitbull mix dead on I-75. It put a huge damper on my day.

What is the proper thing to do when I see a living pup on the highway? The police do not seem very responsive? Any thoughts?
