For the dog .
had the dog made contact with my skin and caused very light damaged I’d have met with the owner and resolved it with a one on one convo . Maybe a “ kindly .” Placed word
I calmly stepped in front of my girl who was ready for a scuffle.

then I’d request dog training and potentially therapy .
And told him to get lost .
If it is an injury that is serious enough or very clearly a dog with a previous continued history. I would call the police . You can sue for damages and having an unleashed animal running at you.
Just saying tho. Dog ran at me and my other one the other day.
full on off leash
no recall
I would try to reason with person first depending on injury level/ and obvious treatment like if it looks like a bad situation ( they pay hospital fees . Muzzle dog. Get training and even offer to pay for any recovery training for trauma caused.)
And reimbursement for any damages done.
I think taking them to court when it’s not the worst ( few stitches .) would put a bite mark on a dogs record when really it’s just poor ownership( unless it’s byb.)
almost apologized to him man look like I hurt his feelings too.
gave the old fart a lovely shoulder tap with my foot.
if it was byb and hyper aggressive we going to court tho….
then he turned away and I gave my girl the okay to walk on. We played some games to shake off the stress of another persons poor handling.
if that dog touched my dog ! I’d beat the ever living sh💩t biscuits out of it.
I’ve had a lot of experience with bite risk dogs in doggy daycare. We had a lot of last chance. We understood the dogs were badly bred or had past situations or even just bad. Owners. We got bit and hospitalized a lot for minimum wage . But we understood deep down it wasn’t the dogs. It was the environment around them and again bad breeding. Also fuck day cares .
