The folks at the hospital who treated me told me to get some info on the dog and owner and then call them back. The county animal control people require this (mainly because of the rabies threat) and will supposibly pester the victim (me) until they get the info. I drove out to the farm where the dog came from and talked to the owner. She was very nice and was sorry her dog was so mean to me. The dog was really nice, probably because I did not bike. I even patted him on the head. I think you're safe around dogs if you're on foot. Its just bikers that they hate. Bart Thielges
