I thought I would just give the ones who followed this story an update on the dog. My dad called the lady today and she that she has kept the dog. They are calling it Lucky. They said they took it to the vet's office and had x-rays done and all. The bullet was only 2 inches away from the dog's heart. Now, The dog is in a cast, but it is doing so much better now! I am very proud! A Christmas Miracle. The dog was saved and now has a great home!
