Todd Pook thought he heard fireworks Friday afternoon beside his home at 132 E. Belmont St.
What he actually heard was two gunshots fired at his dog, Chase, an Akita-rottweiler mix, after the animal was approached by a Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety officer investigating a breaking-and-entering call across the street.
"I stepped out on my back porch, and I could see the smoke from the gun," Pook said.
The dog was injured in both hind legs, requiring 21 stitches in one leg and a drainage tube for fluid in the other. Pook said he paid more than $1,000 for surgery and an overnight stay for Chase at his veterinarian's office.
