Editor's note...me...Brian

O.K.
Just to clarify...there were no peace offerings..the dude was from the 80's and those "peace offerings" remind me of the 80's:)
The dog is actually in the pound for 10 days, and then it will be put down.
The owner will be fined by the city. He felt terrible.
Samantha should have had a few stitches but we did not take her in right a way so the nurse said to keep it clean and it would heal on it's own.

A blood sucking attorney (no offense to any attorneys we know) found out and had the following conversation with Brian:

Attorney: "We should pursue his home owners insurance and other legal action"

Brian: "The owner feels terrible, he gave up his dog, and will pay a fine"

Attorney: "What about the medical bills!?"

Brian: "It's a $20 co-pay and $10.00 for medicine...that's it".

Attorney: "Your daughter may need treatment down the road".

Brian: "She is fine and I am not going down that road!!"

This is a confirmation of what is going on in Washington and Wall Street. They are all law grads and want every dime they can get.

First dog bite

Well, we got our first dog bite in the family (excluding the mean New York poodles that snatched onto Brian during his mission). Jacob and Samantha always walk home after school past a house that had two dogs that are a pit bull mix. (Yes...another pit bull story) The owner just happened to let one of them out of his house as they were walking by and it immediately started running towards Samantha. Once Samantha realized the dog was coming she ran like the wind! The dog lunged for her tiny little thigh and bit her. She started to bleed, so the owner helped put band-aids and peroxide on her leg. She was able to walk the rest of the way home by holding on to the neighbors’ fence.
She has handled everything well, but I think all of the attention we have given her has helped.

Brian confronted the owner, and after an exchange of words (words which kept Brian from partaking of the sacrament the following Sunday..jk) the owner gave him the following peace offerings:
A hot pink KC light cover, a Bon Jovi belly shirt with cut off sleeves and a beer stain, and finally a Def Leppard cassette tape.

On a more serious note, we did call animal control and they are holding the dog for ten days. I am not sure what will happen to it after that. The owner did apologize and felt really bad.
