According to TMZ, Ryan Fischer was attacked near his home in West Hollywood while walking the singer's dogs, Koji, Miss Asia and Gustavo.
The publication further reported that the singer's bodyguard was spotted picking up one of the dogs.
Currently, the 34-year-old singer is in Italy and judging by the upfront money she has pledged to give whoever finds her dogs, she is determined to do everything to get her pets back.
Sources said that the dog walker is thankfully recovering well in hospital.
However, police officers have said that they cannot ascertain if the gunmen who stole the dogs knew they belonged to the wealthy singer as thugs also target French bulldogs because of their high demand and worth.
They also confirmed that the shooting happened but could not ascertain if it was really robbery or if something else transpired.
They are still waiting to talk to the dog walker as he was rushed to a local hospital in an unknown condition. According to the police spokesperson, the suspects took off in a white vehicle and are still at large.
The Bad Romance song maker's handlers are yet to release any statement.
