In a Facebook post made by Killua’s furmom, Vina Rachelle, she revealed how Killua was intentionally killed by a man in their area and later put Killua’s body inside a sack.
CCTV footage taken in front of Vina’s house, which was posted on Facebook, showed how the man chased after Killua, hitting the dog repeatedly as it ran around to get away from him. As of writing, the video has garnered over 859,000 views and 43,000 reactions.
In a separate Facebook post, a video showed the man who killed Killua talking to Killua’s furparent. In his defense, he told Killua’s owner that the reason he killed the dog was because it attacked him.
The man later took Killua’s body out of the sack, revealing the remains of the furbaby.

Killua’s furmom wrote on Facebook about how Killua could not go outside their house because the gate was locked. However, they have yet to determine how the furbaby was able to get out of their house, as Killua was used to staying inside.
She also said that if Killua indeed bit anyone, it could not justify killing her pet.
“He was asking for apology, but no sorry could ever replace my baby,” wrote Vina Rachelle.

Meanwhile, another X user said Golden Retrievers were one of the most gentle and sweetest dogs, and despite their size, the little giant did not deserve the cruelty.
Believe me or not, Golden retrievers are one of the most gentle and sweetest dogs, specially for kids. Not because dogs can't talk, and cannot defend themselves, it doesn't mean we treat them this way. This little giant doesn't deserve this! #JusticeforKillua pic.twitter.com/cG79Qk9mDG

While many netizens shared their sympathy for the death of Killua, some expressed their anger toward the man who killed Killua.
An X user posted how the man will always be remembered as the “dog killer” who deserved to rot in jail.
PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER YOU AS A DOG KILLER ANTHONY SOLARES. YOU DESERVE TO ROT IN JAIL. #JusticeForKillua

One of them even claimed that violent people deserved violent punishment.
Coping with the loss of a pet is hard, but losing your pet because it was murdered, is a different kind of pain.
