Erie, Pennsylvania – A Pennsylvania animal shelter is seeking information about an apparent case of animal cruelty in Erie. According to the ANNA Shelter, the Erie Police were informed about the presence of a deceased dog who was left in a dumpster last night.
The dog, Prince, is a miniature Australian Shepherd who was born in 2024.
In a public Facebook post, the shelter described how Prince was killed, writing:
He was freshly deceased and died from a close-range gunshot to the head. Someone knows this dog. Someone shot him in the head yesterday. Someone dumped his lifeless body in the dumpster last night.
Shelter staff is determined to find the person responsible. Anyone with information is asked to call or text the ANNA Shelter at 814-572-5913 or EPD at 814-870-1125.
Note: It is unclear exactly how the dog’s name and date of birth is known; presumably from a microchip.

If they got the information of his age, when he was born, etc. from a microchip then they sure as hell can track down the owner!! Use a gun on the POS SOB that did this to such a young innocent soul. May they burn in hell!!!
I agree
video evidence? Who was adopting out these dogs? or possible breeder who couldn’t sell
Death penalty no less
Kill the mother f-er who did this to this young pup! Enough is enough and someone needs to go after these murderers and kill them the sane way
THIS SHIT IS GOING TO KEEP ON HAPPENING UNLESS THE AUTHORITIES GET SERIOUS ABOUT PROTECTING ANIMALS, UPGRADING THE LAWS AND MAKING THE PUNISHMENT FOR SUCH CRIMES SO MUCH MORE SEVERE.
FAILING THAT – VIGILANTE JUSTICE – LET’S JUST TAKE THE LAW INTO OUR OWN HANDS AND GET REAL JUSTICE.
here here….. i agree…. vigilante street justice is what is needed….only way to stop this shit….. an eye for an eye…. in deed….
ditto
This hurts my heart:( what a beautiful puppy who didn’t deserve this.
Death penalty for this evil monster!
I am 1000% with you. Death to the monster.
Find the pathetic scum!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! AND VERY SICK, SICK, SICK!!!
THIS POOR WEE BEAUTIFUL PUP DIDN’T
STAND A CHANCE IN LIFE?????
WHAT A COLD, EVIL AND CRUEL THING TO TO DO????
I TRULY HOPE AND PRAY WITH ALL MY HEART THAT THEY CATCH THE EVIL MONSTER ASAP!!! AND HE OR SHE PAY IN ‘FULL’ FOR SUCH A EVIL CALLOUS ACT !!!
THIS INDIVIDUAL IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND MUST BE FOUND THE SOONER THE BETTER!!
We need to start doing the same thing to humans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I 1000% agree!!! This disgusting evil shit must stop! An eye for an eye!
Find the pathetic scum!
“We” need complete annihilation. “We” are swarming all over the planet with countless evil sadistic pieces of sh*t in the mix, and they’re treated lightly when the victims are “only” animals. Yes, I’m willing to go too…yes, “throw the baby out with the bathwater.” Non-existent is what “humanity” needs to be.
I entirely agree when people say save the planet i say why ?
It should blast to smithereens like a giant cherry bomb. So much evil, so many innocents suffering and dying from it every single minute. Why? Indeed.
Find ’em. Break ’em in half and toss in the dumpster. Wish ’em a slow painful death and go wash hands.
Now if we could only do that to his owner. The world would be a better place.
I have a terrible feeling Prince wasn’t killed by his owner. His owner took the time to have his or her precious pup microchipped. My guess it’s some vindictive p.o.s. who has a beef with the owner, or may be an ex-partner, a neighbor, etc.
Whoever it was, they’re a sick person and deserve some street justice.
I find their addresses and write evil deranged letters to them hoping they die the same way! Google their addresses and send them anonymously!
What a hideous person to do this to any animal. The subhuman doesn’t deserve to be in society should be locked away for good. It’s just a matter of time before it gets a hold of a child . This will continue until we have stricter penalties jail time and heavy fines!! You judges need to get with the program and start slapping these people down!!!
Please find Justice For this defenseless and innocent pup. RIP Anna❤️
The human race is the most dangerous animal on the planet. The monster who is responsible deserves the same treatment and outcome as that innocent pup.
