Description

My request was also submitted in Medford as the incident happened on border. My request is an alert about an encounter with a dangerous dog that bit my girlfriends dog when I was taking him on a walk. At 3:30 PM December 13 I was walking my girlfriends dog near Divir Park. I encountered a friendly obese-overweight white male in 30-40s, 6ft tall. His dog was very large breed that to be looked mixed Dane. I allowed the dog to come close to say hello on a short lease. Almost immediately the dog put its jaw around his rear with no aggression. I grabbed the dog’s jaw and pulled it off because he was screaming and stuck. The owner did not move or react. The owner did not apologize, only acknowledging he grabbed him. The dog left two distinct dog bites like in this photo. A vet was consulted stated the bite was mild and needed to be cleaned and monitored. The dog is 30 lbs, it is scary to imagine this animal holding any longer or this dog encountering another animal dog, especially because the owner seemed unconcerned.
