two dogs jumped in front of me

still scary even if you have anti rabies vaccine. One time I was walking in the street with my dog. I don't carry the dog (though he's small) because I was "walking" the dog . Then I saw from afar the stray macho dogs. I knew I will have a problem with this because my dog is a male. Male dogs have these territorial mind, and seeing a male dog will make them too frantic. you know "this is my territory why are you here" thinking. So when i covered my dog with my scarf and carried my dog. but they still saw his tail (LOL). so we both were attacked. the men from the street came to rescue us if not, there could be more harmed done to us. I got few scratches and a bite (i think my dog bit me, in surprise) and my dog too. we both went to the doctor after, had my anti rabies (very expensive ones) I really hate those who own those dogs, its a broad day time and there is a policy that during daytime dogs should be caged.

The owner really did a responsible job there. Sometimes dogs can be unpredictable so anti rabies vaccine will make sure that you are on safer side. The little kid must be scared though.

I'm glad nothing bad happened. Dog bites are so painful, it doesn't care you are free for rabies or not. I hope your nephew is OK and he didn't got scared too bad. Children can become fearful of dogs if they had such experiences. I am curious what was the dogs' owner explanation? I had a similar experience today and the dog owner kept saying 'he won't bite, he won't bite', while his dog was attacking my dog. I can't stand such irresponsible dog owners!

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well u should be thankful to the owner of those dogs as he intervened at the right time otherwise it would have attacked u and your nephew. This has happened with me also but i have always shown my eyes to those dogs and with my hardcore mannerisms have controlled the situation otherwise these dogs would attack u. What say?

The owner should train those dogs so they don't bark furiously or just don't have dogs. If the dogs bite, then they need to be put down. Dogs should not bite people at all. And people should not have dogs if they bark to the point of scaring people.

oh thank you for that share. I din know the anti-rabies vaccine could last long as 3years and you and your nephew were very lucky that the owner was with the 2 dogs i cant imagine otherwise. well you guys were pretty lucky. but in my experience wise the dog which barks wont bite much than a silent dog... :) dont know if its true but i feel so like that. I still dont know why the dogs were barking at you furiously .hmm

Thanks that nothing bad happened to you and your little nephew. I love dogs but I am afraid of their bites. Dogs are unpredictable, they looks very calm but may attack anytime. Be careful next time especially when you are walking with little ones.

Dogs have different manners. Some are don't bark and just run to you and bite you. Some are just stayed and barking. They say you must always prepared when you meet strange dogs. When you think dog would attack you just sit and have something in your fist to depend. When you sit the tendency of the dog is to bounce back, they would think you have something to do with them.

glad to owner got control of them.. never know what they could do to a 3 1/2 year old. Glad everything working out there.
