hey everyone,
I moved into my current location about 3 weeks ago. It is a basement apartment with the owners living upstairs. I have my own kitchen, bathroom, living room, bedroom, laundry and entrance. It is a small farm house. They have chickens, roosters, dogs, cats, goats and sheep. They also have vegetables and fruits growing in the yard with their own personal solar panels tucked away in the far corner of their garden.
Today I was playing with their little daughter out in the yard just a few feet away from the doors. The dog must have either felt threatened for the daughter and became defensive or maybe she just got too excited. She went for my hands a couple times very lightly. I felt like she was playing around and just said No each time she did that. And then when I bent over to pick up something from the ground, she went for my face.
There are three cuts on my face. The big one by my left sideburn which is an inch and a half long, .5 centimeters wide and anywhere from .1 to .3 centimeters deep. The other two cuts are right next to my nose to the left side and right above where my mustache is. They are just two very small cuts compared to the big one by the sideburn.
When I told them of the incident, they did a little in-home first aid treatment for me. When I asked about the scarring of the big cut, they said it wasn't serious enough to leave a scar and that all I needed to do was apply neosporin diligently. The lady who performed the treatment for me said she was once trained to be a fireman and knew how to do medical treatments and that when her son fell and got a huge cut on his eye lids that she stitched them herself as well.
They showed me the dog's medication and rabies shot receipts so my main concern is the scarring of the cuts.
We're no strangers. During the few weeks I've been here we've interacted often, eating dinners together, spending time just talking and playing board games, etc. They have been fantastic landlords so far and I don't want to break their bank by going to the hospital if I don't need to.
What do you guys thinK?
