Police Say Puppy Shot Man Trying To Kill Dogs
Three Puppies Found In Shallow Grave

POSTED: 6:45 am EDT September 9, 2004

PENSACOLA, Fla. -- Deputies say a man in Pensacola, Fla., who was trying to shoot seven puppies was shot by one of the dogs.


This is one of the puppies who was abused in Pensacola, Fla.


The man was holding two of the shepherd-mix puppies when one of them wiggled and put its paw on the trigger of the man's .38-caliber revolver, making it discharge.

Escambia County deputies say 37-year-old Jerry Bradford was shot in the wrist and was treated at an undisclosed hospital. To top it off, the sheriff's office issued an arrest warrant charging Bradford with felony animal cruelty.

He said he was shooting the 3-month-old pups because he couldn't find another home for them.

Three of the puppies were found in a shallow grave behind his house, the other seven were taken by animal control, which intends for them to be adopted.

DJF, too bad that couldn't happened the first three puppies perished. Hadn't this "man" heard of ANIMAL SHELTERS??!! Nice shootin' pup!!!

I was hoping he was shot and killed by his own gun!

Sad thing is that the mama dog is most likely still able to have more pups. People like that don't take and get their dogs fixed

That's so awesome! I feel bad laughing at someone getting shot, but since it was "only a flesh wound" :



Serves him right.

And did you see the puppies on the news? They are just adorable.

I think the media is having a lot of fun with the story, because he was wounded with his own gun!

The stories I heard are all saying he got what he deserved.

I agree with Catnapper. Before something like this happens again, The poor pooch should be spayed.
