Update: 4 p.m.: The puppy found dead in Laurel was shot, according to North Fork Animal Welfare League staffer Gabrielle Stroup.
After being examined at North Fork Animal Hospital, where an exam and X-ray were done, two pellets were found inside the pup, a 12-week-old border collie.
“She was shot,” Stroup said. After speaking with SPSCA, Stroup said little can be done until the dog’s owner is found. “Please help us get more information so we can get justice for this baby,” she said.
