A Memphis, Tenn., man is in critical condition Wednesday after his dog shot him in the back.
Police say King George, a 150-pound Great Dane, accidentally knocked a .22-caliber pistol off his owner's end table around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday. The gun went off, hitting his 21-year-old owner in the back. "I knew he was smart, I didn't think he was that smart," said the victim's fiancee, Miesha Lucas. "He was always protective. I didn't think he would be like that."
Police do not plan to file charges in the shooting, which they've ruled as accidental.
But Lucas said that she fears what her fiance will do to the pet once he gets out of the hospital.
She declined to give out her fiance's name. MagazineLane.com - America's Largest Pet Pharmacy
