I’m a CCA of almost 2 years. I was bitten by a pit bull about 4 months ago and needed 12 stitches to close my shin. I’m really skittish about dogs now and a fellow carrier suggested I sue the dog owner. Apparently the owner had been warned about an ineffective fence before, but nothing official.
I feel like kind of a turd even considering this but it has been a detriment, not to mention I have a pretty good sized scar and numb area on my leg.
Anyone have suggestions?
