CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Volunteers in Charlotte are working to raise money to care for a dog that was reportedly found suffering from a gunshot wound.

WCNC reports the dog, named Ethan, was starving, suffering from heart worms and bleeding from a gash on his face when he was found last week in South Carolina.  X-rays then revealed the canine had been struck by pellets from a shotgun.

Ethan is currently in the care of the Greater Charlotte Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.  The SPCA is attempting to raise an estimated $500 for his care.
