While driving to the New Mexico desert for a jackrabbit hunting trip with his trio of dogs, Tex Harold Gilligan was shot by none other than his dog Charlie.
Woof.
Charlie, the 120-pound Rottweiler-mix was sitting in the front seat of the car when he got his foot caught in the trigger of Gilligan's gun, accidentally shooting a round into his owner, according to ABC News.

Upon realizing that he had been shot, Gilligan called 911, and was airlifted to the hospital shortly after his call.

Despite being in critical condition, one of Gilligan's primary concerns after he was shot was making sure that all of his dogs were OK.
The three pooches were taken to a county shelter following the shooting, but Gilligan asked that his pups be removed from "doggy jail" —even Charlie, local KRQE News reports.
The faithful dog owner initially told authorities that he shot himself by accident, but later admitted Charlie had unintentionally pulled the trigger, ABC News reports.
“[Charlie] did not mean to do it,” Gilligan, who quickly forgave his pup, told ABC News. "He's a good dog."
Gilligan was treated for his bullet wound and has since been moved out of intensive care, according to KRQE. And, we're assuming that Charlie is fine, if not a little embarrassed by his misstep, no pun intended.
