Teen who suspected his dog had rabies shoots her point-blank in the face because he 'had no time to take her to the vet'

The dog, named Gloria, survived the shooting but had to undergo a number of surgeries to remove the remnants of several shattered teeth
UPDATED OCT 27, 2018

Police have charged a Missouri teenager with animal abuse after he reportedly shot his dog at point-blank range in the face, believing that the animal was showing signs of having contracted rabies.

The dog, named Gloria, survived the shooting after her owner justified it by saying "there was no time to take the dog to the vet."

People magazine reports that 18-year-old Harley Mobley of Slater was arrested and remains in police custody on a $7,500 cash bail. However, he is yet to enter a plea to the single felony count he faces, and it is not certain at the moment whether he has a lawyer who could comment on his behalf.
