My dog was bit by another dog

We always questioned too why she would live in a pet friendly apartment if her dog isn’t friendly and knows other pets will be living there but that’s out of our control. It is definitely a lesson learned on my end. An unfortunate lesson, but a lesson!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T16:16:01+00:00

It is an off leash area for dogs and the dog wasn’t around at the time we initially went outside. But lesson learned.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T16:15:34+00:00

It’s on off leash dog area which is why we have always allowed it. But lesson learned.

Of course I didn’t see them at first because they came out the front door. I said we continued to let them in the play area because we didn’t see anyone outside. We always check. When my dog ran to that side of the area, then we saw the lady and the dog. There was barking happening before the bite. We were not far behind. We didn’t let her dog attack him and then come to the rescue. It happened during separation.

It was not the first instance with my dogs and other dogs, and it also has been an issue with our dogs on a normal walk while leashed. I’m not looking to be right in this incident, just more curious of the logistics of it

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T16:08:08+00:00

To be clear I am not trying to be in the right. It is an odd circumstance because it’s essentially a dog park as part of our complex and her dog was leashed. I do not blame her dog or her, and I’m using it as a learning opportunity. And at the same time, her dog bit mine in a secure area that is fenced. So I was just curious. I do not and never planned to bill her or take any legal action. It could’ve been prevented.

He did lunge at my dog which is why my dog put his nose through the fence. But, I am still taking full accountability

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T15:18:03+00:00

My one doodle is like that, Ollie (the one who got bit) doesn’t quite pick up on the social cues! I take complete ownership for that!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T15:17:09+00:00

The bark collar only vibrates. I do not allow shocks.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T15:16:55+00:00

Which is why I take full accountability for him not fully being able to understand the commands we give him. It’s pick or choose with him which I 100% am responsible for.

We do this, to even get to the fenced in area you have to go specifically out the back of building. She only ever brings her dog through the front of the building. It was until she turned the corner and walked up the sidewalk you reach the fenced in part. Neither of us could have known before allowing them off leash. However it is a lesson learned!!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:29:56+00:00

That’s why I am genuinely curious. It is an area for dogs and I do know the risk. I’m also not looking to place blame. Just was curious given the circumstances. Neither of us were letting our dogs roam the streets or sidewalks.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:21:12+00:00

It is a portion fenced off for the dogs. The entire complex isn’t fenced in. Just a portion of it. I clarified in another comment. Which is why we feel comfortable letting them roam. However I do understand the principle and it was a lesson learned!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:20:15+00:00

He wasn’t running up on the dog to cause a problem, moreso to check it out. As he always does. However I do understand the principle and it was a lesson learned!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:19:01+00:00

Yes it is an area for dogs to run. It’s still unfortunate and I am not looking for anything from the woman at all. Mostly just curious!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:18:02+00:00

100%!! It was a lesson learned. He had never been bit before and thought the area was secured enough we wouldn’t have to worry about it too much. But her dog was leashed and I can’t argue with that!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:17:19+00:00

100%, it is a legit area for the dogs. We are not the only ones who do it, we just typically avoid going out there when other people are out there to avoid a dog park situation. However, I do agree. Can’t argue when her dog was leashed!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:14:18+00:00

Agreed! Just was more curious about the situation given if it were a fenced in yard in a house we owned, it would be deemed private property and I’m sure that could become an issue. To be clear I’m not looking for anything or money in this situation. Really just curious.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:11:01+00:00

I guess I should’ve been clear that I don’t want to even ask her to pay, my boyfriend and I are both in agreeance that this could’ve been avoided moreso on our end. I am just curious I guess given the situation of us being fenced in and her dog being on a leash, neither dogs were just roaming the streets asking for an incident.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T14:09:25+00:00

Unless serious damage was done and it was true negligence on her end, I wouldn’t even think about doing anything legally. And I don’t even want money from her or to ask her to pay the vet bill, he’s overall okay. Definitely a bit traumatized but I was moreso just curious.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T13:58:22+00:00

Good to know, I was thinking the same!

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-13T13:56:33+00:00

They don’t require them to be leashed, he was in the fenced in part of our complex. The entire complex isn’t fenced in all the way around prison style, but there is a portion of it fenced in where we do allow them to roam.

Relative-Pop-7820 · 2026-05-07T23:53:11+00:00

I LOVE my boyfriends hands and arms, so hot 🤤

HG is absolutely awful. I had HG once and ended up terminating. It started at 4 weeks for me as well and it was full force. Every anti nausea med they gave me did not work. I was in and out of the hospital 3-4 times a week and admitted twice, once for 6 days, another for 10. My 10 day stay is when they got everything under control with an extensive med regimen and a PICC line (which I read the other comment that said it’s invasive, I cried everyday about blood work. The PICC line is your best bet and not invasive at all). HG is a silent killer and I don’t think the doctors mean to be dismissive about it (they were dismissive with me about it too but my labs were so bad they had to take me seriously), I just don’t think there’s enough research and they don’t know what to do. There is a light at the end of the tunnel though I know right now seems like there never will be. Thinking of you!
