It is axiomatic that "dog bites man" is not news, but "dog shoots man" must be! Yesterday a 61 year old chasseur in the Haute Pyrenees leaned his gun against a tree while went to pick up a woodcock he had shot. But his dog ran up, knocked the rifle over and discharged it, hitting the man in the forearm and peppering his companion with shot. Fortunately the dog was not a good enough shot to endanger the life of his master, who was nevertheless treated by pompiers before being taken to hospital in Orthez.
