Fede got attacked by a neighbor's dogs this morning while Brandon was walking him. Both of them got perforated wounds. Fede got checked out by an emergency vet and Brandon went to urgent care. They both got their wounds cleaned (they're not too bad, Fee's are worse because he has a lot of scratches) and were sent home with antibiotics.

This sucks and we're pissed at the neighbor for not controlling his dogs better. We talked to him and he said "Oh yeah sometimes they attack" and WTF dude

@motoridersd oh hell fucking no you need to call animal control.

I hate to say that but this is no fucking way acceptable.

Glad that they seem to both be alright!

That attitude (from the neighbor) is absolutely, 100% unacceptable. We have two pitbull-type dogs and know that if god-forbid either of them were to bite anyone, it's likely a death sentence for them. So, well over half their training is about redirection, being gentle, and not reacting to other dogs/animals/people because they don't get the luxury of benefit of the doubt.

Dog owners that don't take aggression as a serious issue and manage it really piss me off. They're the reason breed-specific legislation gets pushed.
