    Vicious dog attack

    Just wanted to make a point. I have over a hundred snakes in my collection and this is the worst animal bite I've received in over 10 years. (the worst bite ever is from a cat, but that's another story)



    I got this bite last night from a friends Pomeranian. She has 3 poms and is currently taking care of 2 other Shih Tzu mixes. They all greeted me at the door last night when I went over to visit, with all the barking and excitement, one of them got a little too worked up and decided to nip me. I didn't actually even feel it at the time, but it started to hurt a little later. My friend was pretty upset about it, but I don't think it's that big of a deal. I just thought it was kind of funny that with all the snakes I've got, one of my worst bites is from a toy dog.

    LOL, I dislike poms & chows. Most of the ones I seen do nothing but bark and annoy and attack ankles.

    Quick, call FOX News and some senators so they can whip the nation into a hysterical frenzy. We could all be next! Oh, wait. It was a dog? Damn, I thought it was a bite from a 35 foot albino ball python. Carry on.

    Re: Vicious dog attack

    Poms are the one breed that I think twice about before taking them on as a client. I have yet to meet one that doesn't seem to think humans are there for them to bite. (and yes, I have dealt with quite a few).
    Toys bite alot more frequently than the larger breeds in my experience.

    I find that punting them across the living room usually stops them from biting.



    jk. I don't really kick dogs.

    I've been lucky with Poms. Never met a nasty one. No nasty Pits either. Now Rotties...&, yes, Chihuahuas...whole different story.

    But I bet you would like to every once in a while, especially if it's one of those little yapping ankle biters!!

    I wonder if that's because many toy dog owners treat them like little cute toys and are less likely to discipline them like they would a larger breed dog?

    I think that has allot to do with it.

    I totally agree!! And the really annoying thing is these people usually think it's cute when the little ones act all vicious.... STUPID
