SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - A Utah bird hunter was shot in the buttocks
after his dog stepped on a shotgun laid across the bow of a boat.

Box Elder County Sheriff's Deputy Kevin Potter says the 46-year-old
Brigham City man was duck hunting with a friend when he climbed out of
the boat to move decoys.

Potter says the man left his 12-gauge shotgun in the boat and the dog
stepped on it, causing it to fire. It wasn't clear whether the safety
on the gun was on at the time.

Potter says the man was hit from about 10 feet away with 27 pellets of
birdshot. He says the man wasn't seriously injured, in part because he
was wearing waders. The man was treated at a nearby hospital.

It takes a real man to hunt down and shoot a dangerous duck, but it just
takes a dumb dog to shoot its master.

Do you eat duck? And you have a passion for guns, don't you?
