The loyal German Shepard jumped in front of his owner's gun seconds before the trigger would have been pulled. The 63-year-old French woman is said to have fired her husband's .22-caliber rifle outside near her dog several times before pointing it at herself. That's when the dog took actions into its own paws.

"At the moment she pulled the trigger, her dog jumped on her and diverted the shot," police told the Telegraph, believing that the dog's super sensitivity, or alleged sixth sense, prompted it to take action. Her husband found her shortly after the incident and immediately rushed her to the hospital. The woman suffered a minor flesh wound to the chest during the incident, but doctors say the injury is not life threatening.
