The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. Psalm 28:7

Dog Bite Encounter

I was going back to visit the little boy that had been hit by the car.
I had to pass by the same fenced yard as Sunday.
They have 2 really mean and vicious dogs tied up in this barbed wire fenced yard. I remember them but this time there was a rottie mix loose in the yard but they have several strands of barbed wire about 5-6 inches apart and that dog was barking, growling and charging the fence.
He came right through the fence and bit me on the back of my upper leg......thank the Lord that it only scratched my skin. His paws really scratched my ankle though.
Tell you what it scared me and caught me off guard!
Then a flood of anger set in and I was ready to battle that dog with a rock or something.
That sneaky dog shot back through the fence and laid down and acted as if I wasn't there.
The owner came out and I got after the lady and showed her where the dog bit me. I told her to put the dog in the house because I was going to see the little boy and that I would have to come by again.

I also told her the police could come and take her dogs for this. I was given the number for the humane society but when I called no one was in.
I have no problem with a dog protecting its property but to charge through the fence.
I will have to carry a piece of rebar with me next time and he might not think that feels too good.
He was a big dog and really could have hurt me....so I'm thankful for God's protection!
