A farmer in northeastern Victoria, Australia, has posted a substantial reward following a shooting incident at his family's plant nursery. Tom Powell's pet dog, Daisy, a German Shorthaired Pointer, was shot on May 15, 2026, at approximately 8:40 a.m., sustaining injuries to her hind leg and abdomen [1]. The dog survived the attack, though Powell incurred A$2,700 in veterinary expenses [1].
Powell initially offered A$5,000 for information but subsequently increased the reward to A$20,000 [1]. He has reported the incident to police and suspects the shooting was a deliberate act connected to longstanding business disputes [1]. The incident occurred at Powell's nursery near Beechworth on Stanley Road in Stanley, where Powell, eight other family dogs, and two employees were present [1]. Reflecting on the reward amount, Powell stated: "A$20,000 is not actually a lot when you're talking about people's lives; it's quite a small amount actually" [1].
