Cherokee Businessman Accused of Shooting Alsatian

It's understood that a complaint has been lodged in this incident:

Our dog Zeus was shot yesterday by Delmer Bailey. He is the owner of the new hunting club on Mill Road in Cherokee. A police report has been made and charges are being filed. Please be extra vigilant watching your fur babies. Not only does he shoot deer for sport he also will shoot your pets for fun!

As many of you know I adopted Zeus from Florence animal shelter on my birthday this year. He's supposed to be my dog but he chose to stay at my mom's.

All of her animal's stay in the house unless they are going out to potty or going out with her. Yesterday at around 1 pm she went out to check the mail and of course all the dogs followed.

Zeus ran past her and down the road about 40 yards , when this lunatic shot at him twice. Zeus was hit once in the leg.

Zeus was very lucky the bullet went through the inside of his leg without breaking the bone. By some miracle he wasn't killed and should make a complete recovery.

But this sorry S.O.B. could have very easily shot my mother. She was still walking down the driveway unbeknownst to him.

So I ask everyone PLEASE be very watchful of your animals if you live in this area. And if you are an avid hunter and have been using this hunting club I beg you PLEASE DON'T DO ANY MORE BUSINESS WITH HIM!

We don't know Delmer Bailey, but we feel he may have a great future in some police departments.
