So Sad: Salma Hayek's Dog Found Dead From Gunshot Wound on Her Ranch [Photo]

Salma Hayak took to Instagram to mourn the loss of her 9-year-old dog Mozart, who died a week ago.

He was found dead at her Washington state ranch with a bullet close to his heart.

It wasn’t until Friday night she chose to share this tragic news, saying “He was the most loving and loyal companion.  He didn’t deserve a slow and painful death.”

Law enforcement is investigating.

I haven’t posted for a week as I been mourning the death of my dog, Mozart who I personally delivered out of his mother’s womb. He was found dead in my ranch last Friday with a shot close to his heart. I am hoping that the Washington State authorities do justice to this wonderful dog whom in 9 years never bit or attacked anyone. He loved his territory and never strayed away…he was the most loving and loyal companion. He didn’t deserve a slow and painful death. #doglover #animalrights #dog #dogoftheday #rip #delivery #washingtonstateauthorities Hace una semana que no pongo nada ya que he estado de duelo por la muerte de mi perro Mozart. De quién fui la partera, lo encontramos el viernes pasado con un tiro cerca del corazón. Espero que las autoridades del estado de Washington le hagan justicia a este extraordinario perro que durante 9 años nunca mordió o atacó a nadie, adoraba su territorio y nunca se escapó. Era el compañero más leal y no se merecía una muerte lenta y dolorosa. #muerte #perro #justiciaporlosanimales
