dog bites

so i have been bit by a dog. it was about a year ago and not fun. i got seven stitches and the stitches hurt worse than the bite. it was a wheaton terrrier, and if you don't know what kind of dog that is, i can't help you. all i can say is "ankle biter". so needless to say i have been somewhat cautious since then. i say somewhat because i still do things i shouldn't, like grab dogs by the collar. anyway, so there is a dog at work right now that has stitches in his ear due to a fight with his brother. both dogs have been known to bite people. my co-worker and i had to spray something on his stitches this afternoon. he didn't want to come out of his crate so silly me went in with him. as i was doing this i was thinking to myself "you really shouldn't be doing this, if he gets pissed enough he could bite your face off" hindsight is 20/20 though. we managed to spray some on, not well, but then after putting him back, we had to get him out again to put something else on him. so not fun. when a big dog doesn't want to do something, not a whole lot you can do except try your best to get it done. luckily no more dog bites....... atleast today.
