Suspect(s) Unknown - We need your help!

Investigators were trying to figure out who shot and killed a dog in Loveland. A miniature pinscher named Taffy ran away from home on Monday, but searchers found her two hours later on nearby railroad tracks. She had a broken leg and two bullet wounds.

Joyce Moore, Taffy's owner, said they first thought the dog broke her leg and that someone had used a gun to put her down. Police believe it's a case of animal cruelty. The Moore's said their other dog, Coco, seems lost without her buddy.

The Larimer County Humane Society is looking for any information that would help investigators find the shooter.
