Nobody has shot at my family here in Anchorage but we've been attacked by 4 dogs who all claim that their dog was friendly. The latest one, a pit bull, tried to rip my wife's throat out but the dog's tooth got caught on my wife's tooth (chipping it) and only the dog's lower jaw was able to move, tearing my wife's face and requiring 20 stitches. The dog's owner didn't even attempt to help my wife after his dog attacked her. My problem is with people who always take the side of the attacking dog regardless of the facts.
