Dog named Trigger shoots owner

A woman in the US state of Indiana is recovering after being shot by her dog in a bizarre hunting accident, an environment official says.

The woman, named as Allie Carter, 25, was hunting waterfowl on Saturday in the north of the state, Jonathon Boyd, an Indiana conservation officer said.

She put down her 12-gauge shotgun but her chocolate Labrador stepped on it, shooting her in the foot.

To add insult to injury, the dog was named Trigger.

Mr Boyd said she suffered injuries to her left foot and toes and has since been released from hospital.

He said Ms Carter had not completed a hunter education course and urged all prospective hunters to do so.

If he had a dog it would look just like Trigger.

If you can't trust your dog, who can you trust.

When I read this story this morning I laughed out loud ! I'm not sure I believe it but anything can happen and it's pretty damn funny. However careless gun handling is never funny she was lucky if the story is real it could have been her head !

I work with a gal who was simultaneously tracking the deer she had shot and breast feeding her infant. She referenced herself as a redneck.

Hope she was bow hunting. A redneck would not miss with a rifle to the point where it requires tracking!

I call BS on the hunters safety education, unless she forged a document. I am not aware of a single state that doesn't require a safety course for getting a hunting license. That includes Indiana if you are born after 1986.
