SHOCKER!!! Check Out How Trigger The Dog Shoots Owner In Freak Accident
Sep 18, 2020
What’s in a name? Well when one woman named her pet dog Trigger, she had no idea how apt it would prove to be.
A woman in the US state of Indiana is recovering after her ‘trigger-happy’ dog shot her in the foot in a bizarre hunting accident.
Jonathon Boyd, an Indiana conservation officer, said 25-year-old Allie Carter was out hunting waterfowl on Saturday in the north of the state. According to Mr Boyd, she had put down her 12-gauge shotgun when her chocolate Labrador stepped on it (accidentally we assume), shooting her in the foot. To add insult to injury and with a great twist of irony the dog is named Trigger.
Mr Boyd said she suffered injuries to her left foot and toes and has since been released from the hospital. However, this incident is not as isolated or unusual as you would think. Since 2011 there have been numerous incidents in the good ole’ USA of man’s best friend being more like a worst enemy.
In December 2014 Richard Fipps of Wyoming was accidentally shot in the left arm by his dog when it jumped on his .300 Winchester Magnum rifle which was sitting in the backseat of his pick-up with the safety off. Similarly, in February 2013, 35-year-old Gregory Dale Lanier from Florida was shot in the leg when his dog kicked a 9mm semi-automatic pistol that was lying on the floor of his truck.
