...puppies kill people, or at least maim them:

A Pensacola, Fla., man trying to shoot his puppies was wounded when one of them got his paw on the trigger and accidentally shot back, authorities said.

Jerry Allen Bradford, 37, was shot in the wrist by his own .38-caliber revolver, the Pensacola News-Journal reported Wednesday.

It seems he was holding one pup in his left hand and had one under his arm. The one in his hand somehow managed to put its paw on the trigger and fire the weapon.

I say it was self-defense.
