At 10:00 PM in her California mobile home, 53 year old Janice Jones was shot in the leg when her dog knocked her 9mm handgun off the table.

The bullet went straight through Jones' leg, then through her automobile.

"It could have been worse," Rye said. "The bullet hit two inches from the gas tank."

Jones was transported to Huntington Beach Hospital by ambulance and was later transported Irvine Medical Center.

Jones' pomeranian, Tombo, who was malnourished and had fresh cigarette burns on its forehead; was taken in by Huntington Beach Animal Control officers.

"It could have gone with a little less abuse and few more of those pork chops," Ngo said.

 Jones is to face quite a few charges; some of them include animal abuse, relation to the gun incident, and not having a permit for the gun.
