Default Very very sad news for me

It is with a huge amount of sadness that I am letting you know that this
past weekend, while I was in Edmonton - some cruel and heartless person shot my precious Nala. She managed to make it onto the front deck of my house where she died.
I have a pretty good idea who did this but of course no proof.
She was a beautiful and very good little dog who I have never know to wander out of my yard but I have one very cruel neighbour.
I am devastated by her loss and just can't seem to stop crying.
I just don't understand some people. I live in the country on 30 acres and I have livestock that she has nevered ever bothered and like I say I have never known her to go out of the yard.

There has got to be some recourse. You can't just shoot an animal. I hope you have the RCMP involved at this point.

Good luck in bringing the bast@rd to justice.

I don't know if there is anything that I can do. I am only guessing at who I think shot her and I tried to find a blood trail to follow but could not. I have sent an e-mail to my RCMP friend but I don't have any proof - only suspicion at this point.
I am still in shock over this - this dog was rarely even outside unless it was with me. When I left for work in the morning she was put in her crate until my son got up. He works night shift so he would be with her all day until I got home from work. Then we would go for a walk and she just wanted to spend time with people so she would be for the most part inside except to go to the bathroom. She always just stuck around my old fat yellow lab who never ventures very far at all.

Very sorry for your loss, she was a beatiful dog, our neighbor poisioned our golden retriever, and cut our trees down, luckily the dog survived.
There will come a day when your tears of sorrow will softly flow into tears of remembrance.
