Man Shot By His Own Dog Proves That In Virtually Any Scenario, They Are Still Good Boys
In an incident that is somehow somewhat common, a man is claiming he survived being accidentally shot with a shotgun by his own dog, according to the Las Cruces Sun-News this week. Perhaps unsurprising to anyone who's ever owned a dog, however, is the fact that the pup's owner says he's still a good boy.
Sonny "Tex" Gilligan, a 74-year-old resident of Doña Ana County in New Mexico, said that the incident occurred October 25 while he was hunting with the alleged four-legged shooter, Charlie, and his two other dogs, Scooter and Cowboy. Gilligan told the paper that his 54kg Rottweiler mix accidentally fired the shotgun through the driver's seat of his truck, ultimately hitting him and resulting in several serious injuries.
"Charlie got his foot in the trigger of the gun and I leaned forward and he slipped off the seat and caught the trigger — and it shot," Gilligan told the paper. "It was a freak accident but it's true, that's what happened."
