A professional fisherman got a big surprise as he tried to launch his boat at Lake Sam Rayburn to practice for a fishing tournament this past weekend.
Eric Jackson, of Rock Island, TN, told 12News his two-year-old Dalmatian, Bodi, stepped on the gear shift switch, putting the 38-foot RV in reverse.
Jackson says he was on the back bumper unloading his boat when the RV began backing into the lake.
Jackson had been working to launch his boat at the ramps at the Umphrey Family Pavillion of Highway 255.
He was planning a practice day before the Fishing League Worldwide 2019 Tour when the mishap occurred.
In the video, Jackson can be seen trying to run around the side of the RV to stop it from going into the water.

Lake Sam Rayburn? Lucky he didn’t uncover yet another one of Dean Corll’s victims. (apparently there are still more to be found).

I hate when my dog backs my RV into the lake.
I should have never taught that dog to drive.

I’d be more impressed if it was a manual transmission and the dog worked the clutch.

I’m not buying this story.
Nope.
You cannot put a vehicle into gear without one foot on the brake.
I bet Doofus left the motorhome in gear and used the emergency brake. Which failed.
Then blamed the dog.

Reminds me - anyone here ever launch their boat without making sure the drain plug is in? It’s the kind of thing you do once.

First dogs are shooting us, now they’re running our trucks into the lake.
Begun, the Dog Wars have.

That’s why they make emergency brakes.

I guess the RV does not have the safety feature where you have to put your foot on the brake in order to shift it into gear.
