A 5-year-old German Shepherd mix named Romeo whimpers a lot from all the pain he's been in lately. SLIDESHOW: German Shepherd Mix Injured He is a gentle family pet, so why anyone would torture him is unclear. Dog's Paw Cut Off Police said someone cut off Romeo's back left paw. It was cut clean through the bone while he was leashed in his own back yard on South Alling Street in Tallmadge. "It's just repulsive," said Michael J. Duvall of the Tallmadge Police Department. "He's a fine companion animal." An investigation is under way involving what happened to the Snyder's family pet. Katie Snyder, 16, adopted Romeo from a pet rescue five years ago. "I want them to find them," Synder said. "It's a messed up person who did that. He's a sweet loving dog. Everybody who meets him, loves him." Veterinarians performed surgery to move what was left of the dog's pad to front of his paw, so he can walk on it again. Anyone with information is called Tallmadge Police at (330) 633-2181.
