Dog Recovering From Paintball Shooting

Saying he was just trying to "shoo" the dog away; Serge Leman, 31, of Redmond used a paint ball gun to shoot "Bugsy" the boxer, who had wandered into his yard. Our news partner, News Channel 21 reports that Lemay says he didn't mean to hit the dog in the eye. The dog's owner took Bugsy to Dr. Jim Bauersfeld for treatment, and the doctor says he doesn't know what will happen to the dog yet; it could lose the eye. Police wrote Lemay a $2500 ticket for firing the gun within city limits, but he was not cited for animal abuse. The incident remains under investigation. Meanwhile, the dog's owner is left to foot the vet's bill for Bugsy’s treatment.
