A dog that was injured by his owner inside a St. Louis business on Wednesday, September 25 is expected to recover, animal shelter says.

“He’s here and he’s safe,” The Humane Society of Missouri wrote in a Facebook update on the pooch on Thursday, September 26.

The Humane Society of Missouri further reveals that law enforcement rushed the dog to their shelter where he received emergency medical care.

They wrote, “He had sustained superficial injuries and upon arrival, was also dehydrated and underweight, but we expect him to make a full recovery.”

“Thanks to you and all of your support we are able to make a difference in this pup’s life,” the animal shelter wrote. “He’s going to get the Second Chance he deserve.”

Kathy Warnick, President of HSMO says that they are very pleased that the innocent puppy is expected to have a “good outcome”.

She also tells KMOV that the pup is a “very sweet and gentle dog, but also is understandably fearful at this time.”

Furthermore, KMOV reveals that the dog is currently not up for adoption. And that the vet is monitoring his condition and checking for illnesses such as heartworm disease.

“We will take good care of him as we do with all the animals we serve,” Warnick says.

St. Louis police reveals that the fatal shooting occurred after a man was seen wandering around the Renaissance Financial building holding the dog.

When the officers arrived to assist him outside the building, the man pulled a knife and began stabbing the dog, KSDK reports.

The police proceeded to deploy a stun gun, but the man was able to break free. After fleeing, he went into a stairwell and began stabbing himself in the neck.

Before the man was able to do anything more dangerous, he was shot by the police. He was then rushed to an area hospital, but was pronounced dead.
