A warning shot does not impact the chest, as it did for this dog. The man may not have meant to kill the dog but he meant to injure the animal, hence the charges. He plead guilty to animal cruelty which most likely means his original charges were more severe. The authorities most likely felt he did not have just cause in shooting the dog period, if he did they would not have charged him with a crime.
