The Carver County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate a weekend incident involving a family dog being shot in Young America Township.
Sheriff Jason Kamerud reports that around 5:50 PM on Saturday, a family member had been walking the family dog to the end of their driveway in rural Carver County. The family member lost sight of the dog, and some 15 minutes later, the dog returned home with what appeared to be gunshot wounds. The family took the dog to a vet hospital where it was determined that the injuries were too severe to treat, and the pet was put down.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Carver County Sheriff’s Office.
