A man has been shot by his dog while on a hunting trip in the United States.

James Harris, 37, was shot in the leg after one of his hunting dogs stepped on his gun.

He had put the shotgun on the ground in order to retrieve a pheasant that had just been shot.

Up to 120 birdshot pellets hit him in the left calf at short range, according to authorities in Iowa.

A local official said the injury was not life-threatening, but would "give him trouble for a long time".

Alan Foster, a spokesman for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, said it was not uncommon for hunters to be shot by their dogs.

He said: "I hear about it a couple times a year.

"They'll step on the trigger assembly and, if the gun for whatever reason wasn't on safety, it doesn't take a whole lot to trip a trigger."

Mr Harris was treated at Grinnell Regional Medical Centre and later transported by helicopter to University of Iowa Hospitals in Iowa City, following the accident in Poweshiek County.

An investigation into the accident is under way.
The cause of the accident was found to be what scientists call Americanis Stupidus.

I may be way off the mark here but didn't something similar happen to Percy Thrower (the gardener before anyone younger than me asks )

There's several cases like this in the Darwin Awards.

Also a snake shooting someone, and a dog fetching a lit dynamite stick.

All strangely in the good old US of A.

There's a case of this in the Michael Moore movie 'Bowling for Columbine'. Moore interviews the Sheriff's Deputy about whether the dog will face any charges.

What gets me is the bloke is out shooting with his dog. He shoots a bird then puts his gun down unattended to retrieve the bird, dog steps on trigger.

The dog should have been retrieving the bird. Useless bloody fleabag.

I saw this reported on News:24 the presenters couldn't keep a straight face and had to rush off to the sports (or business) news.
