The dog was scanned and to everyone’s shock it was revealed that the dog had a bullet lodged at the site of injury. The dog was further treated at a private veterinary hospital in Velachery on March 8 and the bullet was taken out of the body.

On March 9, Sridhar lodged a complaint at the Perumbakkam police station to take action against the person who shot his pet dog. He also handed over the bullet that was taken out of the dog's body to the police station.
