What is the name of your state?washington
i will try to be as concise as possible.
i was on my morning run and a pitbull chased me but did not attack me.
i talked to the owner(resident of the home at which the dog resided) later that day and let him know that his dog was loose and aggressive. he said he would be sure the animal was contained.
i figure its taken care of. i go on my run the next day.when i near the dogs yard not only is the dog off its leash but the front gate is wide open. on this day the dog attacks me.i was able to fend the dog off with my knife but not before he made mince meat out of my finger.
i called animal control and an ambulance .the owner arrived shortly after the animal control guy.when i talked to the owner about my injury i let him know that i wasnt interested in raking him over the coals but that there would be expenses incured that he would have to pay.at which point he said"well i dont actually own the dog i was going to buy it but not now the owner will have to pay you"
in the end i had to go to the hospital pay for medication and miscelaneous items for the care of my wound and miss two days of work.
the animal control guy says the criminal burden falls the guy who says he was planning to buy the dog as he was the custodian of the dog.
i plan to talk to this guy again and try to work something out with him but if he gives me the lame"it wasnt my dog "balony what should i do?
