Pitbull?

The dog is claiming he never pulled the trigger.

Pitbull?

A lazy pitbull.

Or old and toothless.

 

[not new guy]

I'm reserving judgment on murder/manslaughter until after I learn what breed of dog it was.

Blaming the dog? How about blaming the moron who basically said to himself, "I'm just going to lay this rifle here in condition 0 in the back of the truck with the barrel pointed towards the cab. Then we're going to drive off and hope for the best."

"It was not immediately clear who owned the truck and the dog or who called 911."

Probably not the dog.
