Video shows doggie retreat customers, employees narrowly escape out-of-control SUV

Employees and pets at a Maryland dog retreat narrowly escaped an SUV when the vehicle ran through Sniffers Doggie Retreat earlier this month.

Video shows a typical day at the Rockville, Maryland facility, with a customer having a discussion at the front desk when a white SUV appears outside the front doors.

The SUV appears to come to a stop at the curb and then moments later, it bursts through the glass doors and entry way at the dog retreat.

Then it keeps going.

The SUV plows into an office space where a trio of employees are shown running out of the room to avoid getting crushed.

Then video shows the SUV continuing through the building before it comes to rest in the back room where the dog retreat has dozens of crates lined up for canine customers.

Investigators said there were no serious injuries in the incident, though two dogs escaped, according to the dog retreat. One of the animals was located within hours of the wreck and the other returned to the building on its own, a couple of days later.

“We’ve been asked many times what exactly happened. We don’t have specifics but we do know this was an accident,” the facility’s owners wrote on Instagram.
