    I know you are trying to be helpful, but I'm not asking for advice about my husband's medical condition. We are intelligent enough to have consulted specialists and he is under the care of a few different doctors. This thread isn't about his illness, it's about how he got attacked.

    Ow, that statement is a cruel disservice to dogs. Dogs can sense unconscious cues humans give off (like body scent changes and body language) and react accordingly. They are social animals.

    My dog is a neutered male but he is still protective of his humans and home.

    Back on topic, Andygirl, I'm so sorry this happened. I grew up in a high-crime area so I'm not surprised, though. You should do as CO suggested and contact the newspaper and even TV news stations.

    Andygirl, I'm so late on this. What a horrible random act of violence. I'm sorry this happened, and wish there was soemthing I could do. For what it's worth, I wish all of you the strength to get through this together. Many good vibes, smiles and hugs your way.

    I just saw this.

    I was devastated to read this. I can't even fathom what you guys must be going through right now, especially in light of your husband's condition. He's a good, kind person and if there's anyone who didn't deserve this, it's him. The world is indeed full of sick fucks.

    Let me know if you need anything at all. Good for you for flyering the neighborhood.

    your husband should get a permit to carry a gun.

    I have one and it makes me feel safer going into bad areas, but damn i never even thought to myself that i would need one while taking a walk in the neighboorhood.

    I am so sorry this happened to you. Maybe he should carry a knife around everywhere at least. This world can be a crazy place.

    I grew up with a strong male role models in my life but i was still a small girl and there was only so much martial arts i could be taught when a size difference would matter over anything else. I was brought up with guns because of that and taking target practice in the woods. When i was 18 i owned my first gun and now i can legally carry.

    I know legally what i can do if it came down to it and i feel safer that way. I would never misuse in a situation that it was uncalled for but knowing it is there makes me feel safer.




    Than again, if he did have a weapon it could have escalated into something far worse, so you never know. However, if he had a knife hidden well on his body he would know when to use it and when it wouldn't make a difference or it would make matters worse.

    Usually just having a weapon is enough to scare a attacker off. Thus, asking if the dog bites. Next time say yes, always.

    I'm sorry that happened to your hubby. Unfortunately, I've had a lot of random attacks in my life time..I keep some sort of protection on me at all times now.
    It's sad that I have to always carry a gun or pepper spray just to go to the store but, I'd rather be prepared than walk around in fear.
    My new love...is me !
