Sorry, I missed this thread, been working way too much. Little doggie is doing just fine, she's snoring away right now. I, however, am a little freaked out about taking them for a walk again. I need to get a weapon, be it pepper spray or an air horn, or stun gun, and get over it. My dogs are getting fat.
The police, apparently, won't respond even if a dog attacked a human....if that person is no longer in danger. But the good news is, that animal control took the report and it sounds like they are following up on it. I was impressed that they called me the next day and said to put in a more detailed written report. We'll see what happens.
"DW was attack twice by a dog. I told neighbor that they had a beautiful house (indoor pool, he's a builder) and that should protect it. I also took to carrying a golf putter or a large,sturdy umbrella when we had wet weather. I think they got the message."
I would file a police report, animal control report, and the second time....actually called the lawyer. That's BS, people shouldn't allow their vicious dogs loose to intimidate people and other dogs.
It's different when a person is attacked from when another dog is attacked. It looks like the cops in her area don't care if a dog attacks another dog. I don't think that is true everywhere.
When we used to walk, before our infirmaries became unbearable and before our responsibilities to our parents, DW was attack twice by a dog. I told neighbor that they had a beautiful house (indoor pool, he's a builder) and that should protect it. I also took to carrying a golf putter or a large,sturdy umbrella when we had wet weather. I think they got the message.
We also carry a prepaid legal plan. Made a report to them for documentation.
