A seven-year-old Alaskan Malamute is expected to recover after getting shot in the shoulder.

The incident happened Tuesday afternoon in the city’s East Hill area while the dog was in a yard with a six-foot high fence surrounding it.

The owner, who was visibly shaken by what had transpired, told paNOW their dog is very mild mannered and the incident appears random in nature.

They also noted the veterinarian was unable to get the bullet out, so it is still lodged between her shoulder blades.
