No humans or canines were injured Friday morning when a driver smashed through the front window and an interior wall of a dog grooming and boarding shop in San Marcos, authorities said.

The crash occurred around 10:10 a.m. at Sandy Pawz Dog House on Nordahl Road, just north of state Route 76, San Diego sheriff’s Lt. Michelle Craig said.

After the crash, shattered glass from the store front was scattered across the shop, while a portrait of a French bulldog hung over a car-sized hole in the drywall of an interior wall.

According to 10News, the driver said her own dog distracted her when “she decided to help me drive, and jumped up.”


No injuries were reported, Craig said.
