OMFG I HATE PEOPLE

I'm at my parent's house for my sister's thirteenth birthday. Just now my dad was outside In the garden, and he saw one of her dogs bleeding from his side.

Someone shot him. And we can't find her other dog. Dad is taking him to the vet right now, and I'm watching my nephew while everyone else combs the woods looking for dog #2.

God, people fucking suck. These two dogs (a pair of labs, yellow and black) are the sweetest, most non aggressive dogs. There is the slight possibility that they were shot on accident by a deer hunter, but this happened sometime between 1:30 and 3 PM, and the best time for deer hunting is morning/evening.

ETA: dog #2 is still missing and presumed dead. They are normally inseparable; the missing dog is named Shadow because he follows Cody everywhere. Cody is incredibly lucky; the bullet ricocheted around inside him, but didn't damage any major organs. He has some cracked ribs and a partially broken hip, and had a drainage tube inserted, and is wearing a cone of shame.




The wound in his chest is where he was shot; the smaller wound on his hip is where the bullet was removed.



Shadow is still missing; at this point we are pretty certain he was killed. We showed a picture of Cody's wound to my brother in law, who, as previously mentioned, is slightly obsessed with weapons and has eight guns, and he said it looks like Cody was shot at close range. It's looking more and more like this was not a hunting accident, and my gut feeling is that this was not an isolated incident. I suggested to my parents that they call the local newspaper and see if they would be willing to run a story. I am hoping I'm completely wrong, but I absolutely would not be surprised if other people in the area came forward with similar stories.

I'm speechless - that's AWFUL. Why / how do people do these things?

That is so, SO awful. How can people even do that?

Massive hugs to you, and I really hope the puppies are okay.

God, that's just so disgusting.

=O What. The. FUCK. What kind of disgusting person does something like that? And to a couple of -labs-. Only the sweetest dog breed ever. I'm so sorry for your pups.

This reminds me why I have so little faith in humanity. People suck.

OMFG.


I once knew a lady who's dog was shot right in her front yard. Just by someone "annoyed" with the dog (aka trespassing on her property and saw the dog as an inconvenience).

People fucking suck.

I really hope they are able to find Shadow. :( Please keep us updated! My heart and thoughts go out to you guys. And I wish Cody a speedy recovery! (And that you can find these assholes who did this!)
