In the spirit of the dog poop thread...who's ever been bit?
I never had until last week when the neighbor's dog came on the property. Don't know exactly what breed it is (some type of hunting dog named Earl) but it's a beautiful animal that weighs about 60 lbs or so. One of our dogs (Buddy), a 60lb boxer, didn't think much about Earl coming on to his turf & decided to let Earl know how he felt about it.
By the time I got to them Buddy was doing a pretty good job of making Earl realize he'd made a big mistake coming on the property. Buddy had Earl on his back with a death grip on his mouth & neck. I was beating Buddy with my fists (I thought Buddy was going to kill him) when I lost my balance & somehow got both hands in their mouths. They got the thumb on my left hand, the bird finger on the right hand and I think I took a paw to my jaw as it has a hole in it too.
When it was all over there was blood everywhere......lol....all mine. Neither dog suffered much more than a scratch or two. Did you know they don't close up (stitches etc) a dog bite wound because of the risk for infection? They doused my fingers with betadine, wrapped them up, gave me a tetanus shot & pretty much said good luck with that!
