Dogs do it, too, Doug, but only in self-defense:

(AP) Deputies say a man in Pensacola, Florida, who was trying to
shoot seven puppies was shot by one of the dogs...


I've seen several similar stories over the years, but I remain
convinced they're all urban legends originating from *really* lame
attempts to conceal particularly embarrassing Brain Farts(tm). Most of
them rank right up there with "I shot myself with my rifle while I was
cleaning it" for implausibility.

.. . . was just wondering if, in Bates Township, wounds of the upper
torso go to the Lower Peninsula Hospital.
