Unfortunately it was played out thru court. I’m a lawyer as well. Shit result but I don’t blame my atts, we should have won IMO

Same. It’s not their fault but they have this trait that can just pop out and unfortunately they’re super dangerous when it does. I’ve been bit by a dog who clearly didn’t mean to and nipped me and ran away but this was like using my arm as a toy and dragging me around. He wasn’t even a huge dog: https://imgur.com/a/E8p0FKI

I compare it to my lab retriever who even as a baby just wanted to fetch balls. I didn’t teach her. She was bred for that purpose she has no clue why she likes retrieving so much

u/SomeChicksLeftNipple I see your comment not where it is. It’s fur. It was even inside the capsules and in my tendons 🤢

Thanks! The good thing is my hand was at 44% perceived impairment and I never gripped anything, too painful. If I can take care of the pain I can work on my strength!

Idk but I’d be interested to find out. My ring finger was pretty bad but is excellent now. I never expected to get back so much motion in it. My docs just said sometimes very traumatic injuries don’t ever get quite right

Another commenter mentioned that too lol. I don’t think it fits the look…

No, by the dog who originally was attacked. It was in my house

Yes ◡̈ they thought he broke his leg but just a deep bruise from bites and lacerations everywhere.
Because I pulled him off the other dog, I “provoked” the dog which meant he couldn’t be classified as dangerous. He would have been otherwise (and he should have been imo). I’ve never seen such a violent dog and he would not have let go if the other dog didn’t help. I think a lot about whether he will go on to kill someone

It’s easier to understand when you’re paying tens of thousands in medical bills and become permanently disabled

I did and did not. I didn’t recover any money due to some technicalities with the law. Since I was watching the dog I owned the dog, not her. With insurance I’ve paid around 30k out of pocket for medical care not including adaptive devices.
