10/30/2007 3:20:21 PM

It's a gun dog, he probably didn't notice the gun going off.

This is why every hunter safety manual I've ever seen says to unload a weapon when crossing a fence. Positive control of your firearm is your responsibility.

isn't that why the dog is there in the first place?

^this guy's right

WTF was the dog there for if not to fetch the kill?

10/30/2007 3:50:53 PM

I guess the dog was there to laugh at him when he missed.
