Hey everyone,
I have a small 9lb terrier who bit someone the other day and now that person is saying Im responsible for her medical bills and that she is calling animal control to have my dog taken away. My dog was on a leash when it happened but i had a retractable leash and I was talking to someone else when it happened so i didn't even noticed my dog going after her. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone had been through this or could give me some advice as to what to do. It was a small little bite and nothing serious at all. My dog has been vaccinated and is very healthy. I apologized to the lady and I feel that is all i could have done. She is taking it waay out of proportion but I need to get some advice on what I can do. I will be so hurt if my dog actually does get taken away because he is like my son and for something so small, it would be a shame.
