BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C.–Berkeley Animal Control wants to know who shot a 2-year-old Rottweiler and left it to die.

On Wednesday, officers say they found the young dog, they’ve since named Buster, in a ditch on Cooper Store Road with bullet wounds to his hind legs.

They say he was also connected to a heavy, loose chain.
