Had a friend step out of a Canoe, to tie it up, dog fired his shotgun in the canoe, stepped on it? He then had a sunk Canoe, tied to the dock!

Him flat on his belly, saving dog! And never found his shotgun!

He never spoke to me for a month, every time I saw him, I burst out laughing!

Dang.

What a day! I heard about where a dog stepped on the trigger of a shotgun and blew out some guys truck door. Never heard of a boat-shootin' dog though!

reminds me of the viral video where a Monkey gets hold of an AK-47 in Africa and shoots everyon else away... turned out it was fake video for marketing the planet of the apes...

As far as I know, not one single dog has been prosecuted for these terrible crimes....

My father gave the Hunter Safety course during the 60s and 70s. From the time I was big enough to carry a box of papers to the car, I helped.

NONE of these kinds of incidents (dog shoots man, gun fires during traffic accident, etc) would happen IF people followed the NRA teachings about gun safety.

Sure, lots of the rules are a pain in the butt, and sure, it could never happen to you, and ..... until it does.

Unless you are military in combat, a chamber loaded long gun in a vehicle is an act of STUPIDITY!!!!! And safety on doesn't make it any smarter, or safer.

I guess the dog resented being sent to the back seat!
The owner should have listened when the dog called shotgun.

Mostly about safety; not much about tactics and training.
