<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 5188019, member: 100459&quot;]I think that all of us with young children and grandchildren are horrified when something as serious as a dog attack.&nbsp; My prayers are with him and his family.&nbsp; When I was 7 (65 years ago, I was attacked and bitten by a large black dog.&nbsp; From what I was told, the dog belonged to the family of a neighbor and they were out on a walk.&nbsp; My family tried to find the dog and could not find it.&nbsp; It seems that they were hiding the dog to avoid the horrible rabies tests in 1953.&nbsp; Since they could not get the dog to check, I had to be hospitalized and have 21 rabies shots in my stomach.&nbsp; The dog was never found, but there was one bit of something good.&nbsp; My mother bought me some Howdy Doody pajamas.&nbsp; Howdy Doody was on the pocket, so when the pajamas wore out, I had my mother sew the Howdy Doody pocket on my new pajamas.&nbsp; </p><p>Also, I have 5 dogs.&nbsp; They are fenced in and the gates are locked to avoid an accidental or intended entry into the fenced in area.&nbsp; My neighbor does not and he has a pit and a bull terrier of some sort and they constantly are out of their fence.&nbsp; Luckily, we live down a dirt road about .9 miles from the paved road.</p><p>Anyway, dog attacks are constantly happening, but when they happen to someone you know or know about, it hurts the worse.&nbsp; Thanks for letting us know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
