I bet it was a pit bull. I was almost killed by one not long ago. Unfortunately, since the dog’s owner was destitute and had no insurance, I got nothing from him. Bummer.

I’m sorry this happened to you.
If you were almost killed, you must have sustained very serious injuries.
You have the option to take the owner of the dog to small claims court to get reimbursement for doctor & hospital bills, lost income, future medical treatment, and also a $ amount for pain & suffering?
Do you know what happened to the dog?

My neighbor almost got her hand bit off in august.

She was jogging and random one went psycho when it saw her and attacked.

Ive been thinking of naming a post about it.

Some dogs are just plain crazy. I was at a friend and neighbor’s house when another neighbor brought his little mixed dog about the size of Jack Russell, maybe a little smaller, about 10 pounds or so. I was petting it and it seemed content and enjoying the petting. All of a sudden it just went nuts, snapping, growling, snarling like it was rabid. I jerked away just in time or I would be missing a finger or two. The idiot neighbor and owner just said, “He does that sometimes”. I told him his dog was lucky I didn’t get bit.

My idiot neighbor is letting loose his pitbulls.
I am terrified to even mow my lawn

I have been looking at some kind of stun gun for dogs. I think they also emit a sound

I can’t trust pepper spray if they come lunging at me
