Pet dog shoots his master

A man's 'best friend' shoots him!

Richard Fipps, from Wyonming, US, was outside his pick-up truck removing a snow chain when his pet dog stepped onto a loaded 300 Winchester Magnum, reported telegraph.co.uk

Though the injuries are not life-threatening, it is feared the 46-year-old man could  lose an arm.

Similarly, last year a man was shot in the thigh while driving his truck when his pet dog stepped on a loaded pistol, the report said.
