Daughter gets shot then eats hot dog (5)
I believe the answer is:
dingo
'dog' is the definition.
(dingoes are wild dogs)
'daughter gets shot then eats hot' is the wordplay.
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'gets shot then' becomes 'go' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'eats' indicates putting letters inside.
'hot' becomes 'in' (both can mean fashionable).
'd'+'go'='dgo'
'dgo' placed around 'in' is 'DINGO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dingo that I've seen before include "Wild Australian dog" , "Australian native" , "Wild animal" , "Kipling's yellow dog" , "Kipling's "Yellow-Dog"" .)
