VAIL — A mountain lion entered a Vail resident’s patio and killed a 2-year-old dog on Thursday, the second such killing in Eagle County in a week.
Kerry and Robbie Pearson’s Cavalier King Charles spaniel was taken from the patio of their home on Forest Road near Lionshead Village around 6 a.m.
“I let him out every morning at the same time,” Kerry Pearson said. “I was on the patio when it happened, it was just pitch black. I couldn’t see anything, I just heard it.”
Kerry immediately called the Colorado Parks and Wildlife for assistance when she couldn’t find her dog Mogul, who weighs about 18 pounds. Eagle County Animal Control found the remains of the dog under the deck where the lion was first spotted.
