AK: Small Caliber Handgun Against Moose who Trampled Dogs

It is unknown  what the caliber of the handgun was, and what the placement of the shots were. 

A bull moose, intent on protecting its snow-packed trail from a dog-sled musher and her team training for their first Iditarod race, trampled several of the team’s dogs. The moose withstood multiple rounds from a small-caliber handgun before being killed by a helper who arrived an hour after the incident began.

Bridgett Watkins, who along with her husband Scotty own Kennel on a Hill just south of Fairbanks, Alaska, was training with the help of friend Jen Nelson, who was on a snowmobile, when the encounter happened.
