Lady Gaga’s dog walker, whose name has not been released by authorities, was reportedly shot while walking Gaga’s French bulldogs—Miss Asia, Koji, and Gustav—in West Hollywood on Wednesday night (February 24).

TMZ reports that he was taken to a nearby hospital, and according to CNN, he is 'recovering well,' thankfully.

According to the BBC, a 'male suspect' fired a handgun at the dog-walker before stealing Koji and Gustav. Miss Asia was able to escape the assailants and was later rescued by first responders.

The New York Post published photos of Gaga’s bodyguards recovering the rescued dog from the Hollywood LAPD station.

Gaga is currently overseas in Rome filming her upcoming murder drama, Gucci.

Although she isn’t in the United States, sources close to Gaga told TMZ that she is obviously extremely upset by the news and is offering $500,000 to anyone who’s able to safely return Koji and Gustav, with no questions asked.
