I hope that they catch the bastered that did this! I don't understand how anyone can do this to any living creature, let alone a defenseless animal!
Charlottesville, Va. (AP) - A dog that had its front paws bound before it was dropped 20 feet from a bridge is recovering and scheduled to go undergo surgery for two broken legs.
"She is just an incredible little creature, considering all that she's been through," said Dr. Michael Rose of the Monticello Animal Hospital.
The boxer, believed to be 3 or 4 years old, was found Friday on railroad tracks, county police said. She also apparently was shot in the head with a small-caliber gun, Sgt. Todd Hopwood of the county police said.
Rose said it appeared the dog had been lying on the tracks for fewer than 24 hours before it was discovered.
The animal broke its hind legs and had other injuries. Recovery will take six to eight weeks, Rose said.
The former owner of the dog is unknown. Hopwood said investigators have no suspects or leads in the incident.
"I don't know what kind of monster did this," Rose said.
