Cass County Dog Stabbing Under Investigation

FARGO, N.D. (AP) — The Cass County Sheriff's Office is investigating the stabbing of a dog.

Sgt. Dean Haaland tells KFGO radio the dog was found Sunday in a rural area near Horace, stabbed multiple times. A deputy brought the dog to the Red River Emergency Animal Clinic for treatment.

A dog rescue group in Fargo says the animal was stabbed with an object 6-8 inches long. It's not yet known whether the dog will survive.

Haaland says investigators are following up on some leads.
