Perhaps the dog had a bone to pick with his owner. A Tennessee man told police he was shot by his dog while lying in bed earlier this week. No, we’re not making this up. We swear.

The incident's eerily similar to a 2018 accidental shooting in southern New Mexico, where a 74-year-old hunter landed in the hospital when his dog's paw got caught in his rifle's trigger. The man was sitting in the truck and the rifle was in the backseat.

A man in Tennessee claims his dog accidentally shot him Monday morning while he lied in bed with his girlfriend, media outlets reported.
