Harmon first spoke out about Oliver's death on Monday, mourning the loss with a series of photos and videos of the German shepherd/beagle mix.
The dog died over the Easter weekend at her home in Charlotte, N.C., Harmon said, when "a man delivering groceries for Instacart shot and killed" the "precious" dog. "Our ring camera was charging in the house, which he saw and then knew he wasn't being recorded."
She added that the police let the delivery man go due to him claiming self-defense. "He did not have a scratch or bite on him nor were his pants torn,” Harmon wrote.
