Stitch: The Attack Dog

I cannot count anymore the times our dog Stitch has attacked me. She attacks with no warning at all. She even bit my sister's nose and caused it to bleed.

Just tonight, after dinner, I was playing with her. I was just stroking her fur when she suddenly attacked me. She held on to my legs with her paws, her claws digging deep into my flesh. It was so painful, but I had to stand still since I know that any sudden movement could mean more aggression from her.

Standing there, gripping the concrete wall to steady myself, I could only wish that she just let go of my legs. I was wearing SHORTS, for crying out loud! Couldn't she have picked any other time to attack me? Meaning when I'm wearing pants!?

The result: Long red scratches on both legs, from the thigh to my ankles. Hay! That means I have to avoid wearing skirts to work for now.
