Why can't this be interpreted as the "meteorite" fracturing into many
small fragments aka "ashes" as in a friable portion of what elsewhere
sank up a meter into the ground?

Why must this assume that the dog actually died? I've seen a .45 cal.
bullet bounce off a dogs head.-- knocked him cold/wacky for a few
minutes but he lived.
