Today, while on my run, I was attacked by my neighbor's new dog. It apparently didn't like me running past their house and broke free from its chain. I now have stitches and was just told that I'm probably being taken to court for the emotional distress I caused her and the dog. FML

Take pictures of your injury now, in case this goes to court after you've healed. As long as you have a good lawyer, you shouldn't lose. Still, FYL for the hassle and lawyer fees :

There's no way she could ever prove that you caused her and her dog "emotional distress" in court. Show the court pictures of your injury and you'll have WAY more leverage over your horrible neighbor. You could also counter-sue, saying that she needs to pay for not only your emotional distress but also the medical bill caused by her dog attacking you.

This is where you counter sue for both physical and emotional damage.

counter sue and get the court to order the dog be put to sleep

can you say slamdunk counter-suit? remember to ask for 3 times your medical bills. also call animal control and let them know what happened.

not an fml. be a man and countersue her! it's your word against hers. plus evidence that she should of taken more steps to keep the dog away from escaping into the public (your dog bites)

it's still an fml. she got bit by a dog bad enough to require stitches I would say that sucks pretty bad

my mother was bit by a dog, by law they are suppose to put the dog asleep. Sue the peoples home owners insurance, that's what we had to do!! good luck

Put the dog asleep? **** you. Kill the dog. Why do people gloss over the truth like this?

Because that's the legal term for it you schmuck
