Deputies said after interviewing Justice's owners they concluded that there is no indication either of them harmed the dog in any way, but that it is possible someone took the dog from the residence and released her in the condition in which she was found on June 9.
The Sheriff's Office said Justice is still being provided with medical care as it continues searching for the person responsible for her injuries.
