Oh and something that REALLY REALY REALLY p!$$&* (is that OK?) me off was when the nurse asked "Was this your pitt?" as in a pitbull :somad I used to own a pittbull, and she was SO sweet, once she got a chicken bone stuck in her gum, and my mom had her hand in her mouth for a good 20 minutes trying to dig it out, and not once did she try and bite my mom. Sorry it just gets me mad because people say "Oh well they were bred to kill" ya, OTHER DOGS, and any dogs who bite their handlers are culled because they don't want to get killed because they know what they can do!
Never owned a pitt, but I totally agree that it's wrong to blame the breed for their "wrong-doings." 99.999999% of the time it's the owner or person's fault that the pit bit them, not the dog's fault. It's the same assumptions that abounded for dobermans, German shepherds :)love :love), and Rottweilers that it was the breed that was at fault for the attacks and not the owners.

Glad you're feeling great despite the injuries. Now I have to say you're not the only one that experienced a dog bite. When I was little (like starting grade 1 little) I had a dog bite me in the face resulting in a fair number of stitches. The dog had to be put down of course because it already had proved to be an aggressive dog, especially towards kids, but it wasn't the dog's fault that he acted out like he did. It was my fault because I should've known better at the time than to approach him like I did, and the owner's for not doing something to correct the behaviour of that dog--or even not get the ruddy dog in the first place. And it wasn't a pitbull--it was a shepherd cross. Ironically, after all that time dogs don't bother me. I love GSD's, they're my favorite dog, and rotties are starting to get on my near to next-favorite breed. :D

How about goat bites?
How 'bout sheep bites? :lol:

A couple years ago, I stuck my finger in my ewes mouth to try to look at her teeth and I stuck it back too far and got a gash in my finger from her molars :(

When Alana is is mad she bites. Bad goat. :somad

The molars are the worst!! Front teeth aren't too bad but the molars can do some damage.

Hank cut my thumb up pretty good once, but I had to get a piece of plastic out of his mouth so it wasn't his fault. Elf is the only one who will bite on purpose
