Went to the Humane society and got something new

[86trizinger]

We have been thinking about getting a playmate for our Amstaff.. Instead of a our breeder that we got our first dog from , I decided to go to the Humane Society to look.

GOT SOMETHING ONE OF A KIND.. Trying to get the pic up right now

[86trizinger]

About 7 stitches worth. Sorry I didn't realize the size of the pic.. May not look deep but its almost through the other side.. Still numb to the touch on the outside.

So you went to look at the dogs and got attacked by a dog? What did the people at the Humane Society do? Why did you get attacked? I'm getting you body armour and a helmet! LOL

[Bryan Raffa]

lmao Really... did you bring it home? lol

I was petting and playing with the dog for about 10 minutes. The lady was saying how far the dog has come with its nipping problem. Next thing I know dog hops up and grabs ahold of my lip. I didn't feel anything really just a ton of blood and I thought I felt a puncture mark. Blood was so bad I had to rush out for the ER.. When I got in the car I looked in the mirror and saw as soon as I try to speak it opened up 1/4" deep and blood squirted out in the car. Still numb on the outside of the lip so thats a little concerning but things happen.

They haven't done nothing yet they were closing but they saw me get bit.. Have to call them in the morning.

I was thinking a bubble may work for me... but then I can't ride my trikes so thats out now.

I was considering bringing it home right before it decided my lip was dinner.. I didn't want my son to be breakfast though.

Wow. what kind of dog was it?

[86trizinger]

As with 95% of dogs at the kennels around here, pit bull but not a mix breed. But to be honest it wasn't being mean.. Up until then it was sweet as can be.. I kind of blame that on the people who teach them to jump up for their toys and play tug of war. But for the people not to tell me the dogs tries to bite when it plays before I was seeing the dog makes them at fault since they new of some issues.

I am just glad I moved as much as I did.. or else it would have been my nose and eye. If it was my son it would have been extremely bad.

[Vealmonkey]

Man, I'm glad it wasn't your son, but I'm sorry it was you. It does give you a new screen name though....Puppy-chow! LOL

[86trizinger]

That one isn't taken is it.. HMM.. I don't have a zinger anymore so that's very tempting..

[MonroeMike]

Ouch, looks painful.

[86trizinger]

It's still numb LOL.. Only thing I felt since it happened is the needles for numbing it.. Thats got me a little worried though.

[Rm250RF900R]

Whats going to happen to the dog now? Are they going to yothinize (sp) (i really seriously doubt it)? Was it just playful or did it have that look in the eyes? My uncle got a pitbull that he rescued somewhere in newhampshire i think it was. Really sweet dog, just a pain in the arse .As most dogs are anyways haha. BTW, this has nothing to do with the subject but how do you post normally. Ive been using the quick replay?

[86trizinger]

They are a no kill shelter.. The dog wasn't being mean just not trained.. Its a 40 lb dog that thinks its a puppy so things happen.

They are supposed to cover the Hospital bill so we will see.

It sounds to me that maybe a higher source is letting you know that another dog will only cause you more pain and sufffering We got a puppy back in the fall from ATCsam and that little turkey loves chewing and nipping at you. One time he took a nip at me and got one of my nipples with those little needle sharp puppy teeth! It hurt but nothing like your mouth probably does. Oh yea Thanks for the puppy Sam
