Investigation continues into murdered dogs AUTUMN MacDONALD Observer Reporter RCMP continue to investigate the death of two dogs which were stolen during a break and enter last week. The bodies of two Boxers were located deceased in the Slide Mountain area off the Nazko Highway early Friday morning (Dec. 13). The dogs’ bodies were located more than fifty kilometers from the Matthews Road residence where they were stolen
from less than twelve hours previously. Their deaths are believed to be a result of foul play and the animals are being examined by a veterinarian to determine the cause of death. Results from the veterinarian examination are anticipated later this week. “I’m in shock,” break and enter victim, Natalie Tremblay said. “If anyone knows anything please say something.” Still missing is Dexter

Anyone with any information regarding the death of these animals call 250-992-9211. To remain anonymous, call CrimeStoppers
