Terrier Tries To Fetch Firecracker, Is Killed
STUART, Fla. -- To the horror of her owners, a Jack Russell terrier tried to fetch a lit firecracker and was killed when it exploded.
The owners said the hyperactive terrier named Kaylee would chase anything thrown her way.
The dog was in her family's yard at a Fourth of July picnic when a relative, who was not invited to the picnic, drove by and threw a powerful firecracker into the yard.
The 3-year-old, eight-pound dog died instantly.
A sheriff's spokeswoman said the firecracker wasn't illegal and there is no evidence of malice against the dog. The relative who threw the firecracker will not be charged.
