The statement says the husky, which had gone missing from a run line, was gutted and butchered.
Humane Society West Virginia state director Heather Severt says the amount of pain and fear this dog likely suffered is "unimaginable."
The statement says anyone with information about the case can call the Berkeley County Sheriff's Department at (304) 267-7000.
