Photo Friday, Dog Bite

 It was my fault. I know he's very protective of his pen.
He had backed into a corner of it after I walked him, and I came up to him to remove his leash.
Never put your hand in front of a cornered dog who was abused terribly when it was young.
I should have called him out of the corner before reaching under his chin to remove the leash.
Lucky for me he isn't all that vicious, people could be calling me 'Stumpy' now.

  1. Sorry for you...sorry for Ace. Kudos that you didn't take it personally. Vodka is a natural painkiller.

  2. Amazingly, it really did not hurt, other than when his teeth were actually in my skin. I did take one vodka later in the evening, but not for pain.

  3. Let the dog get some water after the walk and relax first before taking off the collar.

  4. Let the dog walker get some vodka after the walk, and relax first before disrobing.

  5. I walked Brinks the other day and when we returned to the kennel there was a hot dog waiting for him.
