2 Dogs were shot in Orlando Florida in May 19th of 2008. Hoochie and Raley,​ 2 playful husky​ dogs,​ were shot 7 times​ in the eye, neck,​ and back in a field​ in Orlando by Christopher Comins. Both dogs were in critical condition,​ and Hoochie lost his eye as a result of the shoot​ing.​The intentional shoot​ing of these​ dogs is not the first​ time Christopher Comins has been in trouble with the law. In 2005,​ he was charged with felon​y aggravated​ assault with a firearm for putting a gun to someone'​s head and threatening to kill him. He later​ pled down to a mere misdemeanor.​ According to many witnesses and a video​ of the shoot​ing,​ the dogs posed​ no threat.​ Comins did not own the land,​ yet still​ shot Hoochie & Raley​ repeatedly​,​ even as their​ owner​ was retrieving​ them.​ Now, the case is in the hands​ of the State​ Attorney,​ and he has the final​ say about​ what charges will be filed​.​ People are concerned this cruelty will be swept​ under​ the rug due to the shooter's political connection​s and wealth.​

A Rally was Held at the Orange County Courthouse on Sept 23rd 2008 to help raise awareness to the situation since nothing has been done to convict Christopher Comins on animal rights charges.
