This depends heavily on where exactly the dog was shot at, the range at which the dog was shot, the caliber of the bullet and the type of bullet (buckshot, hollow point, etc). In general, shots through the head, chest and abdomen are difficult to survive, although it is possible depending on what the bullet hit, or more accurately, what the bullet missed. However, shots through the legs, ears or tail are generally not life threatening unless a major artery or vein was severed. If a dog is shot, he should be taken to a veterinarian immediately for treatment.
