Our precious Ruby dog has been hit by a car.

We were working in the backyard and DD was playing with her on a lead. Ruby tripped DD over, DD dropped her head so Ruby ran straight out the open gate onto the road where she was hit by a car

She is at the vet and has fractured her hip - we are waiting to see vet about what our options are. We are hoping & praying that she is going to be ok other than her hip.

My question is: Does the driver of the car have any responsibilites regarding her vet bills or is it all us?

Hope our gorgeous doggie is ok. She's only just turned 1
