How awful. Everyone's worst nightmare! Someone else stated that dog bites are not supposed to be closed up and that is true. They always get some what infected and need to be able to drain. I hope Gizmo is on the right antibiotics. What an awful thing to go through!
Your daughter must feel terrible. I'm sure she is no match for a charging Pit Bull. So many towns have outlawed Pit Bulls I am amazed that they are being so lax about this attack. Many land lords will not rent to people with Pit Bulls and many home owners can't get home owners insurance if they own a Pit. It's always the irresponsible that make it difficult for everyone else.
In the town nearest where I live the least the dog owner would have gotten would be a ticket for not having the dog under control and if it did not have a license and proper shots they would get them for that, too. When things like this are treated so lightly by authorities the owner is less likely to make sure it never happens again. |
