Bad dog, no biscuit!

[right way right]

Not the dogs fault.

Might want to secure your firearms else end up dead

Darwin award to the poor guy who didn’t clear and safe his weapon before he put it away.

[Robert DeLong]

Who puts their rifle in the back of a pickup truck?

Almost sounds like a dog ate my homework excuse.

A cat, I would have guessed it. But Man’s Best Friend?!?

[NWFree]

People have been shot by not securing their firearms and it simply falls over

[Navy Patriot]

However it wasn't the dog that violated the basic Gun Safety Rules.

He's just the "Fall Dog".

[StAnDeliver]

Did the dog have the appropriate tags? < / too soon >

[AppyPappy]

Bull. It just so happens the dog was having an affair with the hunter’s wife. Coincidence?

[G Larry]

Don't drive with a loaded rifle!

And "How old was the dog?"!!

[BipolarBob]

Maybe the dog felt threatened and it was self defense?

[dfwgator]

McGruff is on the case...

[pas]

Seems fishy.

[Nervous Tick]

Say what you will about cats, mine hasn’t shot anyone.

Yet.

I’m sure she’s dreamed about it. :-)

This happens more than you would think. Over the years, I’ve read dozens of stories where a dog caused a firearm to discharge and either killing or injuring the owner. The mistake was having a round chambered, and the safety “off”, when the firearm was unsecured.

[freepersup]

The term is going hot which is to say- locking and loading/chambering a round. Dumb! Dumb! Dumb! Reckless! Reckless! Reckless! Basic firearm safety ignored and now someone is dead. Jail time is appropriate for the guilty party, as well as civil damages.

redefines doggy style...

I think I have read something like this before but it was about 20 years ago.
