What is the name of your state? Pa
on March 9, 2006 my son had his friend over for a visit the dog was briefly in the house and than let out for the remainder of the visit. the friend was leaving and on the threshold of the house and outside, i let the dog back into the house, the dog zoomed past me and bite the child on the upper arm
my son told me that the friend was playing with this mask we have in the house and my son warned the friend not to play or take it with him, sadly to say the friend did not heed the warning
i heard the boy crying and ran to him and saw the bite and comforted the child, i called 911 for assistance and i called the father of the boy, the animal control officer arrived and took all the information and told me to seek my vet for the necessary paper work, which was all done in less than 5 hours. the dog is now quarantine for a 10 day period.
i also contacted my insurance company and give them as much information that i was able to
i tried contacting the father to inquire about the son's condition but as of this morning i have not heard back from him
my son is hearted broken and in fact we are all in shock
baron has never bitten any one and infact the vet wrote that he is very friendly and during the exam he did not growl nor try to bite.
this has never happened to my family i dont know what to expect next
thanks for any advice
