The correct answer is D, "Murió ayer," which means "He/She/It died yesterday." This sentence is grammatically correct and responds appropriately to the question about the dog's whereabouts. The verb "morir" is a stem-changing verb in the preterite tense, changing from "o" to "u" in the third person singular form, hence "murió."
