When Max finally appeared, an arrow was sticking through his neck.The family took the dog to a local veterinarian who sedated it and then removed the arrow.The arrow missed all of Max's major organs but if it entered an inch or two on either side of the animal's neck, the puppy likely would not have survived, according to the report.Police suspect that the shooting was not an accident, based on how the arrow entered Max's neck."It's a really mean thing to do to an animal," son Andrew Bentz said.The dog is expected to recover from the injury.Watch Local 6 News for more on this story.
