PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) - A dog shot over the weekend in Phoenix is recovering on Tuesday night. His owners say a neighbor opened fire on the two-year-old Siberian Husky named Falco, who was in his yard at the time. They say the dog stuck its nose through a hole in the fence, and the neighbor pulled the trigger. The bullet went through his nose and lodged in his tongue.

“Why? What made you think in your head that it was okay?” Falco’s owner Hailey Hernandez asked. Hernandez and her fiancé Zachary Zuran still don’t understand how 45-year-old Matthew Wazny could allegedly shoot Falco. “It’s just cruel, it’s just very cruel,” Zuran said. “And he needs to learn his lesson.”

Court documents say on Sunday, Phoenix Police responded to a call of shots fired that struck a dog. When police arrived and questioned Wazny, he matched the suspect’s description from the original 911 caller. When he was taken into custody, police say the weapon found matched the one used to shoot Falco. “They arrested him on the spot, saw blood on his shirt, his hand,” Zuran said. “He admitted that he didn’t like the dog’s barking so he shot him.”

Phoenix Police say Wazny was noticeably intoxicated and unwilling to cooperate with the investigation. “He just needs to get some help,” Hernandez said.
