An heavily drunk Ohio man called 911 to claim his dog had shot itself in the face after telling the stunned operate he trained his Boxer to bring him his gun, police said. 

Jonathan George, 31, quickly recanted the wild tale when pressed by police and admitted to being drunk before being arrested for shooting the 4-year-old pooch named Lula, officials said. 

The dog survived the bullet to the face but lost an eye. 

'(He) said his dog shot itself and he trained the dog to bring a gun to him,' Norwalk Police Captain Jim Fulton. 'The dog had the gun in its mouth when it went off accidentally. The officers didn’t believe that story.'
