Who would do something like this? If you know, you must come forward. Next time it could be your pet or KID!

This is a sick person out there, who would shoot a dog for no apparent reason. One can only hope he/she will realize this and get some help!

My heart goes to Woody's family. The world has become so cruel and callous and it saddens me. Woody, RIP.

Animals are part of peoples family, the sick deranged lunatic feels the need to take his life's problems on a defenseless dog? This person better pay for this, I agree with Michelle, bring those times back!

I agree with everyone. This is disgusting! Hope they find who did this. Maybe the A** needs the job.

Could this be some sort of twisted wildlife rights type of person?

OMG This is devestating news. I have heard of Woody b-4. Why in the world would someone kill a helpless, loving, dog just out in the morning doing his job? This saddens me and makes me sick! I pray they find the POS that did this and find them quickly! God knows who might be the next victim of this/these cruel individual's. I hope to see a follow up story on this and the killer! RIP sweet boy and I hope you all are able to locate another pup to help on the golf course.

The 2 dogs killed. The people who did this must have crawled out from under a rock.A big guy like that and a chihuahua? That's a macho man.The poor dog on the course! In the old west they would have been hung from the nearest tree. These times is when I wish it were then.
