In our family we all love dogs, and we had 3 dogs but now we only have one left, and all of them are natives, but they are very talented, I remember one experience with my dog named brooke, he was about to eat a chiken bone and I was afraid that he might got hurt so I immediately full it, you know what happen he bites me, my parents got scared even though the bite is only little they brought me to RITM or hospital for dog bites and had my injections. I was too worried about may dog, in almost two months the dog died. I am so lonely I missed my favorite dog Brooke? How about you do you have dogs too/ Have you been bitten? How was it?

I don't quite understand your story, but no my dog doesn't bite. If she does it's only when you are playing with her. You can reach into her bowl while she is eating and she'll just keep on eating. She's a very good dog.

We did offer to take in a friend's dog who wasn't allowed to have dogs at his new apartment. It was an old Irish Setter. Very beautiful dog, but it must have been old and senile. The very first night it was here, it was sleeping on the couch. My two year old son at the time knew not to touch sleeping dogs, so he crossed the room at least ten feet away from the couch. For some reason, though, the dog woke up and lunged at him. The dog ended up biting my son's ear. It was not ripped, and did not need stitches, but if he was turned any other way, I fear that he would have had his eye ripped out or something. My husband took the dog to an old lady's farm where there would not be any kids. My son (now almost six) prefers cats now. We also have a black lab/cocker spaniel mix. She has never bit anyone, however, she does get pretty protective that she'll growl and snap at strangers. Sometimes I worry that someone won't take the hint that growling means get away and end up getting bit.
