Ok, So today I went out for a walk, and there were some children nearby. these two dogs ran out from some person's yard and then started to chase them down the street. I protected the children from the dogs, and fended them off, although during that stuff, I got bit in the left knee.
Congratulations..but maybe a check for rabies might be needed..don't know- it's been like four decades since a dog bit me..I don't want the protocol is now..P.Quote:

Not deep at all...the dog simply has to be infected by it. When I was a teenager a family on our street had a dog that always got loose and chased people. No matter how much people complained the owners did nothing.
The next time it got our next door neighbor shot the dog dead...the family replaced it and THAT dog never got out or ran around without their owners in control of it.
ur lucky it wasnt my pit bull gilgamesh because he always goes for the nuts
lol...i would have let the kids been devoured...

Rabies shots hurt like a bitch! Ever had a tetnus shot?

yeah, but even if I did, I wouldnt be allowed to goto a clinic.
(I already asked to goto the clinic for that, and they wouldnt let me. they said I wasnt worth going to the clinic for.)
If I ever go down the street with the dogs again, Ill try to write down the address and call the animal control.
I suspect I may get flamed over this but I've never liked dogs. There is the odd mutt that 'gets under the radar' as it were. But as a species I find them less than appealing. Cats though - there's no finer familiar on God's foul earth!
I prefer Wolves Over Dogs.
Still, I like Cats and Dogs.
Uh, that's not really an option...or something you ask to do. You can get very very sick dude (if the dog had raibies mind you). I'd go anyway...forget the permission BS.Quote:
