    110-pound Saint Bernard, pushed from a window, escaped with bruises

    WARSAW - A man was bruised but alive on Wednesday after a Saint Bernard dog thrown out a two-story window landed on him as he was walking down the street in the southern-Polish city of Sosnowiec.

    The 110-pound dog was pushed out of the window by its drunken owner on Monday, police said.

    “The dog had a soft landing because it fell on a man,” said police spokesman Grzegorz Wierzbicki. “The dog escaped with just a few scratches.”

    “The man was also more in a psychological state of shock than physically hurt,” Wierzbicki added.

    The one-year-old dog, named Oskar, was placed in an animal shelter while police investigate its owners for animal abuse.

    Just take the dog over to China. They will beat it to death over fear of rabies because it has four legs and falls in the canine category. Problem solved. In fact, maybe they can have the original owner throw it out a 2 story window and beat it to death on the way down.

    ....that puts a new twist on the old saying, "it's raining cats and dogs."
