I’ll try to keep this short.
Yesterday morning Teddyji and I were attacked again by the same dogs that attacked us a few weeks ago.
Teddyji is fine. I was bitten by one of the dogs in the calf.
This time some people in a house that we were near heard my screaming and came to our rescue.
They called 911 and they KNEW who owned the dogs, as other people in the neighborhood have been attacked by these beasts!
The police and Animal Control are involved, although after reviewing the city’s laws on vicious dogs, I don’t have much hope that the owner’s will get more than having to pay a fine.
And apparently the “owners” have had dealings with the law themselves (illegal possession of guns!), and their neighbors don’t want to make trouble because these aren’t the kind of people that you want to piss off”… 😦
I’m okay, except for the bite which is healing and I did go to see my doctor and got a tetanus shot. (We took Teddyji to the vet as well and he is just fine.)
I’m now waiting to hear if the dogs are up to date on their rabies shots. If not then, the dogs will have to be quarrentined, and depending on the outcome I may have to be treated for rabies, which I hear is a whole lot of fun.
I went back to work today but I’m still shaken and I don’t know if I’ll ever feel safe walking Teddyji again. I have changed where we walk, but, I’m jumping at every shadow still…
I’ll post again when I know more. Talk to you all soon.
