    Should the police be called to report a dog bites if it punctures the skin? She didn't even leash her dog afterward, which made me furious.

        @avantgame Depending on the bite, it needs to be cleaned out professionally, too--dangerous bacteria potentially lurk within.

        @lauraehall we tried to do it ourselves, probably a bad idea. :( it was too late for doctor and ER is so expensive.

        @avantgame I'm sure it's fine if you've cleaned it! Keep an eye out for flu-like symptoms, headache, etc. Hope he feels better soon :(

        @avantgame if she is anything short of utterly apologetic and offering to help in every way she can, then she shouldn't have a dog.

        @jatosha exactly... it's that she wouldn't leash it and seems so blase that makes me feel obligated to report it to animal control.

        @avantgame So irresponsible. Yes, if she reacted differently & helpfully, maybe a report wouldn't be necessary. I hope @kiyash is ok.

        @avantgame I might recommend calling local Animal Control for advice; if her dog isn't vaccinated, could put your dog at risk :(

        @avantgame You should ask her to provide proof of rabies vaccination. Unfortunately, if the dog isn't vaccinated, and you report it...

        @avantgame ...the dog will very likely (depending on the state/local laws) be killed to test it for rabies.

        @avantgame There's almost no way to punish the owner that doesn't involve the death of the dog many places. Do some research on local law.

        @avantgame Having been put in a similar situation before, it's tough. If you involve police, it's probably the best choice in this case...

        @avantgame Please call the police and report it. This happened a few years ago and I regret not calling. The dog went on to bite again.

        @avantgame I would say yes to calling the police, but I worry that they'd do something to the dog and not the woman.
