Sharp weapon killed dogs, necropsies find

OREGON CITY — Necropsies performed on two dogs killed in Clackamas County show they were killed by a sharp implement.

The owner, 25-year-old Japheth Stalcup, reported last week that he’d found the missing dogs down a steep embankment in woods about 100 yards from his house in Eagle Creek.

He said they appeared to have been bludgeoned by something resembling an ax.

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday that veterinarians at the Oregon Humane Society did the examination. The Sheriff’s Office says it has assigned a deputy to the case, and the Humane Society is offering a reward of up to $500 for information.
