Title: Anybody ever been attacked by a dog?
Post by: Bqqkie Pimp on September 14, 2014, 03:58:20 PM
I mean seriously attacked... by something other than a little yap-yap dog?

Went to Stillwater with uncle charlie yesterday for the OSU v UTSA game and stopped by his in-laws when we got to town. He warned me that sometimes their 120 lb german shephard was sometimes "kinda mean" to strangers.

When they tried to introduce me to this hell beast, it charged at me trying to bite my face. Then, bit my left hip before grabbing my left arm in it's jaws... One of the craziest, most surreal things I've ever experienced.

An Australian Shepard attacked my face when I was like 2 years old. I almost lost my eye, had to have lots of stitches on my face and I still have a scar. Grandpa (same one in the supper thread!) definitely judged the dog.

The second time wasn't quite as bad, but the Mrs. and I were at a live music club in Oakland and there was a homeless guy with his pit bull asking for money. (Like, he's one of those homeless guys that isn't mentally hill but just likes to be homeless.) When my wife said "no, sorry", the dog lunged at her and bit her leg and then lunged at me and bit mine. It seemed pretty obvious the homeless dude had trained it to do that.

I was/am a bit conflicted on "reporting it"... partially because I was a guest in their home and in the process of trying to help these people (late 60's/early 70's) not feel so bad about their dog viciously attacking me, I said I wouldn't cause them any trouble for it.

It's still all very surreal.

If these people live in a rural area and keep the dog in a fenced back yard, preferably tied to a tree, I would consider not reporting the dog if they were good friends. If they have the dog running around in their house, or if it's in town where the likelihood of it running across somebody is greater, then I would report the dog.

Also, did you need stitches? Did the people at least pay your medical costs?

Old boss had dog that would bite legs and stuff.  Bruises and torn jeans a couple times.  Couple years later, it took someones end digit of their middle finger all but off.  Happened in his at home office.  The guy was able to have his finger saved, but lost most of the feeling in it.  Also, the boss's workers comp insurance went up by close to 60% because of the one incident that could have been avoided if he took care of it with the earlier, more mild, bullshit bites.   He is extraordinarily lucky he didn't get sued.  Small biz.  Could have lost it.

So many questions... It barely broke the skin on my forehead and left arm, but left a pretty nasty bruise on my left ass cheek.  Strangely, it all happened so fast that I only initially remembered the facial bite (attempt) and the bite of my left arm.

They offered to pay any medical expenses, and were/are very upset by what happened.  Will be having a discussion with uncle charlie later today, because as time passes, I'm also of the belief that others (especially kids) may be in danger moving forward.

My dog was put on trial when I was a kid. Our neighbors walked by our backyard and their dog approached my dalmation that was on his chain. Both dogs got into it and our WT neighbors took us to court claiming my dog attacked there's in our backyard and they wanted to sue us for damages.  :Ugh: Little did they know, my mom was the main para legal for the county and we had our pick of lawyers. We smoked them in the court room. Trash neighbors gonna trash.  :gocho:

Don't forget to calculate that time in dog years.

Okay, here is the deal. If you can't think of anything at all that may have triggered the dog to attack you and you can see a time in the future when this could happen to another  human being (especially a child), then you should notify authorities. It's just a dog.

I had a neighbor's dog nip at me with the end result of a single puncture wound and a bruise. I didn't do anything about it, but I still hope today that the offending dog is dead and never did that to anyone else. It happened about 10 years ago. Like you, dogs love me and I love dogs. I did nothing to set this dog off.

A dog that bites someone unprovoked needs to be "hit by a truck".

Love dogs, had to put one down for something similar, just the way it is.

The exception is working dogs.  If your mean rough rider farm dog is mean, you're doing it right, probably.  Keeping the 'yotes off your calves isn't a job for the well mannered.

My childhood babysitter lived next door to a cop. He left his cop dog out in the backyard, usually in room sized cage in the middle of the yard. But one day it was out, not sure if intentionally or if it got out, but it bit my finger and I had to get stitches. Not sure what happened to it, since you know, I was two. But that cop dog does not seem very good at his job.

in all honesty this was kind of the case w/ me. The dog was in front of the door I was trying to go through. I think I said "if you don't move, I'll kill you" being two years old and all and then it attacked me. I don't think I touched it or anything though. Looking back, I think it thought "kill" was maybe a command?

Regardless, I was scared as crap of dogs until I was about 10 years old.
