Bitten

On the back of my leg,by a chihuahua,it crept up behind me at my friends house,it isn't her dog,

She looks after dogs,while the owners go on holiday.

It really hurt and is quite bruised,I wonder why it did that,?

I don't blame the dog,I just wonder how the owners treat it as a pet.

My chihuahua is the complete opposite and doesn't look,anything like the chihuahua at my friends,I know there are different breeds,this one was very,very tiny,with very short hair,brown in colour.

Pauline Chihuahuas are notorious bitters .
They are generally bad tempered neurotic little yappers .
And who wouldn't be being tiny in a giants world ?

The thing is,..I was no where near it,in other words the giant was no where near it,i..

I tell you what,it flippen well hurt,

I was shocked,more than anything,I hadn't a clue it was behind me,

My chihuahua is nothing like that,I remember the vet telling me,that some people treat them like children,when they should be treated like a dog,oh well,each to their own.

Re: Bitten

Perhaps ask your friend to put the dog away when you visit.
Sorry you got bit. I don’t think I’ve ever been had that happen.

A new experience for me,Bratti,..she had to hold it in her arms after it bit me,...what annoyed me a little was,she told it off in a loving kind voice,then picked it up and kissed it,

Feisty little beggar,I met my match!.

That would tick me off also.
I’m not sure what the laws are in the UK but here dog owners are responsible for their dogs. If she is caring for it, then she is responsible.

Here, if you had gone into the doctors office to have it looked at then , by law, the doctor has to let you know that it is an assault which may need to be reported. Of course you don’t want to get your friend into trouble but if that dog bit a child, the parents might not be so forgiving.

Your friend should be very thankful that you are so forgiving because she could in actuality get charged.

I’ve read of some serious injuries caused by untrained dogs.
Luckily this wasn’t the case.
