A Michigan family was devastated when their shepherd-husky mix came home seriously injured after he had been shot twice in the head with a crossbow.
The seven-year-old dog named Marty had been missing from his home in Croswell, Michigan for almost three weeks.
Police believe the dog was being held, as it had been subzero temperatures for several weeks.
They also believe he may have been chained when he was shot with the bolts.

‘He was shot twice in the head,’ Tammy Lortt said to The Times Herald. ‘He was missing nearly three weeks until he came back.’
The pup belongs to Lortt’s brother Jason Lumley.
Marty is now under veterinary care and is improving every day.
Sanilac County Sheriff Garry Biniecki said that deputies have a suspect and plan to charge them with animal cruelty. Deputies acquired both evidence and a written confession from the person.

‘Animals are pretty special and people need to realize you need to take care of them,’ Biniecki said.
The family set up a GoFundMe to help with Marty’s medical bills. It raised over $10,000 in just three days.
‘Marty is doing great! They were waiting for him to be stronger to do surgery to close up the hole but now they may not even have to do that it looks like it’s healing,’ the page reads.
Any leftover money will be used to pay the bills, putting up a kennel to keep the dog from escaping, and the rest will be donated to an animal shelter and the veterinarian’s office.
