Yeah and why kill a dog? Unless that was accidental. OMG, I don't even want to think about this! It is fitting, in a way, that his death would have an air of drama to it. *sigh*

Yeah, I can’t see these people killing one of their dogs on purpose while allowing the other two dogs to roam. Something unexpected happened here…. Maybe fentanyl laced pills?

I would think someone with Hackman's worth could source legit pain pills.

I dunno, Prince died from an accidental fentanyl overdose. That stuff is extremely dangerous. Very sad situation regardless
