Dog Suspected in Tillamook Bay Shooting

Dog suspected in Tillamook Bay shooting

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A Tillamook man sustained a leg injury when his 12-gauge shotgun accidentally discharged during a duck-hunting trip on Tillamook Bay.

The Oregon State Police says the man's dog is the prime suspect.

Sgt. Todd Hoodenpyl says 23-year-old Matthew Markum and his younger brother were using an aluminum boat to go from land to their decoys Saturday morning. When the men left the boat, a shotgun blast put a hole in the side of the boat before striking Markum's leg.

Hoodenpyl says the yellow Labrador had been on the boat and may have touched the gun.

An ambulance took the injured hunter to a local hospital. He was later transferred to a Portland's Legacy Emanuel Hospital.

The extent of Markum's injury has not been released.
Almost as hilarious as the story are the readers' comments under the original article posted here.

Seems the dog wanted to do some hunting of his own.

Wow! I can't decide if Darwin comes into play here or not... Maybe the Golden Retriever was just ticked off that they weren't letting him do the retrieving.

LOL

I found a bit more of the story: Man recovering after being shot by his dog :: WRAL.com

Drake is a "good dog" (he's a good shot too...)

I get the feeling that guy's friends aren't going to let him forget about this anytime soon.
