WARNING: Story contains graphic images It was supposed to be an ordinary night for Mark Eskow. The Winnipeg resident left his home for supper on Friday, leaving his dog Cooter to run around in his north-end backyard. But when Eskow returned from a night out, he saw blood all over his yard. Eskow quickly found his seven-year-old bullmastiff, whose nose had been sliced open and was dripping with blood.

While Cooter was being tended to by veterinarians, Eskow pulled up footage from his home’s multiple security cameras on his cellphone. Shortly after 9 p.m., Eskow says his home security camera showed a group of young people in his backyard. The footage showed one person standing in front of his garage under one of the security cameras. The person put on a mask and gloves and pulled a knife from their pocket. The individual then approached the gate, and jammed the knife through the fence, making contact with the dog’s nose, before fleeing on a bicycle. “It’s just a terrible thing to happen to a pet,” Eskow said.
