TOOELE The owner of a dog that was kidnapped, burned and then abandoned along the frontage road near the Great Saltair, according to police, says the family is saying its goodbyes to Dixie. This is a very hard thing for me to post and tell everyone but we are going to have to say our goodbyes to our sweet Dixie girl, Trista Dawn Heywood posted Monday on the Tooele Lost and Found Pets Facebook page.
While Dixie, a 4-year-old Red Heeler who suffered second- and third-degree burns to most of her body including her face, hind legs and even inside her mouth, had been making some progress, Heywood posted Monday that the surgeries her dog still needs are going to be very hard on her and she may not make it out of them.
