From the report this dog had a tracking collar, more than likely had a regular collar as well. Pretty hard not to see those collars even at a fair range.
Am guessing this was a hound....not many hounds look like any sort of coyote
I doubt there was any confusion in this case.
Mistaken identity, confusion, uncertainty, yara yara yara . No excuse whatsoever ! If you're not one hundred percent absolutely certain what you are aiming at, you shouldn't pull the trigger.
Whatever happened, the person behind the trigger is GUILTY without a reasonable doubt period and deserves to be prosecuted if caught.
Feel bad for the dog. Interesting that it was found in an area where hunting is prohibited. Wonder if the owner was hunting within the park or getting the dogs to push the deer out onto legal hunting property. Anyone performing the 3 S's on a dog is going to do it there on the spot I would think.
My main suspect at this stage might be the owner.
There is that southern part of the park where hunting is permitted ... does that include use of dogs?

I doubt that very much unless he is a complete moron for leaving a gps collar on the dog that can easily be traceable through the serial number not to mention the high cost of such device and the fact that if the unit happens to be a Garmin Alpha or Astro, he may end up facing legal issues.Quote:

When you've been involved in investigations you realize that what is "obvious" is often not what happened.

On Monday, the dog's owner called police and said friends had found his dog's body in the sprawling provincial park west of Ottawa, said Const. Catherine Yarmel of the OPP's Killaloe detachment.
Q. The dogs owner called police and said friends had found his dogs body in the.....
OK he had GPS and all the other gear to locate the dog himself how come he had not searched for and located his own dog, it was found buried to I assume the GPs was working.Had this owner reported the dog lost to anyone,apart from his friends.
The dog had been shot in the head, said police. It was wearing an electronic radio collar equipped with GPS that hunters typically use to keep track of their dogs while hunting.
Q. The dog being shot in the head indicated to me it was very close to who shot it,tends to rule out a random hunter taking a pot shot at the dog from his watch.
The dog's body had been buried in a game preserve in the park, said the OPP, where hunting is prohibited.
Police have not said where exactly in the 7,630 square-kilometre park the dog was found.
Anyone with information can call Pembroke/Renfrew County Crime Stoppers at 613-735-8477 or toll-free at 1-800-222-8477
The owner could have got upset for the dog running trash game or what not and in a rage simply shot his own dog.Buried it and did not even consider "his friends" might go looking for the dog.
People do all sorts of stupid things on the spur of the moment,like in domestic murders.
I know of hunting camps that "cull" dogs that run trash game or otherwise become a pain in the butt.Happens probably a lot more frequent than we imagine.
So yeh for me the owner would be the first to be interviewed and questioned.
