PEMBROKE, MA — A Massachusetts State Trooper found a dog on his way home from his shift in Duxbury on Christmas afternoon. Police say Trooper David Phan caught a glimpse of something on the centerline of the street on Route 3 southbound in Duxbury through the rain and heavy fog. When he realized it was a dog in the middle of the road, Phan was able to stop traffic and bring the dog into his cruiser with the help of Good Samaritans who were also passing on the highway. Once the dog was inside the car, Phan noticed the dog's nametag and was able to call the phone number listed. When Phan called the number, he says the family had been looking for Willow and was relieved to know she was okay. Thanks to Trooper Phan, Willow was able to reconnect with her family in Pembroke for Christmas day. "Nice work, Trooper, and all who helped," Massachusetts State Police wrote on Facebook. "We're very happy Willow made it home safely."
