Owner Was Walking Dogs: Shot Hit Quadruped

The woman was walking along a farm road with her two leashed dogs along a free field in the late afternoon. Then the 48-year-old suddenly heard a loud bang and immediately the whining and howling of her three-year-old dog.

Right after that, there was a second bang. The woman rushed to her car and took the injured animal to the doctor. It was determined that it was a gunshot wound, in which the upper and lower skin along with the fatty tissue on the dog's back were severed.
