Bad boy!

Today, I dog-sat for my neighbors' pitbull. Weighing in at 100 pounds with a nasty bite, this dog is no lap dog, but I treated it as one - not knowing how deadly this dog could be - beckoning it towards me with my hand. I now have 6 stitches in my hand and arm, and the neighbors didn't pay me. FML

You've got to be kidding me. They're not even paying your doctor's bills? If my dog bit someone, I'd bend over backwards to help that someone so that they wouldn't get my dog put to sleep. What jerks you have for neighbors!

#2. Not all pitbulls are vicious. Most people would assume a family pet is friendly. The neighbors should have warned that their dog is mean. A good owner will socialize the dog so that it's not afraid of strangers. And if you know your dog doesn't like certain things, like people motioning it to come over, you tell them. You should sue. Dogs that bite people get put down.

Yeah, mos def report the dog. That's just crap. They should keep the dog if they don't care about people getting hurt. Even if they're "sorry" they could've paid for your hospital visit.

Sue them for your medical expenses and suffering, and have their dog put down. F their lives after that.

My brother has a pit-bull and she is the nicest dog I know. My sisters' dogs play with her a lot and she is ALWAYS the one that gets hurt. The only reason why pit-bulls can even be considered dangerous is because their jaws lock. They are only as violent as they are trained to be unless they are threatened. You should always be cautious around new dogs... even if they seem like lap-dogs. Always let them come to you and sniff your hand. They owners should pay though. I say sue them but leave the dog alone it's not his fault you scared him.

In many places Pitbulls are banned, you could sue the owners for the viscious act the dog did. I don't think that you should just let this one go. You at least need to talk to your neighbors, and if they don't understand, then I would take legal actions. I feel sorry for you.

Pit Bulls have such a bad rep and it pisses me off. Blame the owner, not the dog.

I'd bet that your neighbors would have said the same crap about their dog never hurting anyone. Have them pay your bills.

Why is it people implicitly trust pitbulls, then act surprised when the dog bites someone? I support these dogs being banned, they are unnecessary as pets, and have been proven to be dangerous even when properly treated. When will people learn? Completely your fault for not being careful around a dangerous animal. Even my cat bites sometimes for little to no reason - why would you not even account for the possibility it might bite?
