Bruises are caused by blood seeping under the skin. The pain is from nerves....you CAN have bruising with no pain.
Your dog had an injury.
You want someone to tell you it didn't happen with those children....in other words, you want to hear what you want to hear.
To be honest, I didn't read all of your posts.....when people call me names, I shut their nonsense out.

Calling me "angry lady" and "insane" is really against the terms of service here and I suggest you find a better way to respond with your displeasure. You are totally entitled to your opinions...but calling names is wrong. The answer to your last question: You are arguing because, as I said above, you want us to say what you want to hear. Period.
There are plenty of members here who will pat you on the back and say ladyjane is evil and I am good.... that was not a bruise. The children didn't do anything. That is what you want to hear.
The ONLY thing I am upset about here is that your poor dog is going to be left alone again with children who did hurt him....call me the evil juror for stating the obvious. You have not presented anything but pretty much clear and concise evidence of that! Read the comment about your one year old nephew. I don't see anything that leaves open the language "beyond reasonable doubt".
I suggest you read about the different types of bruising....again...they do not all look the same and they do not all hurt. If I felt I had to get a second opinion about whether something was a bruise or a rash...... .. never mind...I am not even going there. LOL
