Dog Wounds Goose Hunter With ShotgunMan Recovering In HospitalPosted: 12:02 p.m. EDT October 9, 2001EAST WENATCHEE, Wash. -- Imagine getting shot by your best friend. But the triggerman in one case was a dog.Authorities in Douglas County, Wash., said that goose hunter Michael Boyle was shot in the leg when a dog stepped on the trigger of a 12-gauge shotgun. Boyle and a friend had been hunting from a boat on the Columbia River, when Boyle leaned over the side to pull in a goose.Deputies said that's when the dog, belonging to Boyle's friend, stepped on the gun. Boyle is now recovering in a hospital. http://www.koin.com/sh/news/stories/nat-news-100891320011009-111006.html

    At least the dog did it unintentional like.I have a friend whose dog (that he raised from a pup), a Chow, bit both his arms in his back yard when he tried to stop him from digging the wifes petunias.The fellow couldn't get the dog off himself, until he went over to the fence which divide his neighbors yard from his own, and physically thru the dog over the fence.Unbeknown to him, his neighbors wife was sunnying herself in the backyard when he heaved the dog over the fence, the dog by this time was just getting started; he chased the lady down and bit her buttock and wouldn't let go; so my friend climberd over the fence to help her out.He finally got the dog off her and this unfaithfull mutt, went to work on him, again.When it was over with, he had received over 380 stiches on his legs and arms.While he was telling us this story at work, one of the co workers, remarked, "What did I tell you, even his dog doesn't like him"Even my friend had a good laugh at that one.

    Moral: If it's loaded and cocked, keep the safety on.
