Have you ever been attacked by a dog or another animal? If so what kind of dog or what kind of animal. How badly were you injured. I had a dog bite my ankle as I was climbing a fence to get away from it. If I had not jumped the fence it could have been a lot worse. It was a large Husky dog.

Some years back, I had a dog bite. I don't know what type of a dog it was. I was walking along a road in the suburb I was living in. All of a suddenly, a dog jumped over the fence in front of a house and ran up to me and bit. Oh, that was so bad. Since then I am scared of dogs, and have been very careful with them. I do not have dogs as pets in my house either, since then.

I am very sorry that, that happened to you. People really need to be more careful about keeping their dogs safely behind fences, if a dog can jump a fence then you need to get a higher fence or put up chicken wire on the top or something. Do know that most dogs are sweet and kind and love people.

When I ride my bicycle, sometimes dogs use to follow me. I remember one dog was quite angry and he ran after my bicycle for a longer time I had usually experienced. I was afraid what if suddenly something happens with my bicycle because of riding quite fast and what if I have to stop. The dog might bite me. I hope I will not experience accident with a dog.

There was a dog at the stable I learned to ride at that bit everyone that was there any time - meaning that children that were only there a year or so didn't get bit.
The former owners gave the dog to Jane because she was the ONLY person he had never bitten. Well, he never bit me, but not because he didn't try a few times.
He was gunning for me one day and I kicked him in the teeth.
In front of Jane.
Who turned to her sister and said. "See, that's how you do it."

Yes, When I was about 14 years old, I was delivering flyers door to door when a little boy let his dog out of the front door. The dog was a huge German Shepherd who immediately jumped on me to attack me. It grabbed my hand and was trying to rip my arm off. All I could do was scream and scream and then the owner finally came out and got the dog off of me. It was pretty scary. I was afraid of Shepherds for the longest time then when I was dating my husband he had a shepherd who was the sweetest dog, then we had a shepherd mix for 14 years, and now we have a full blooded German Shepherd, all very sweet dogs, so I know that was just a bad one.
