Dogbite

L. I am sorry this happened to your grandson. You said the bit broke the skin? No matter what the first thing with any dog bite is to clean it out! If this woman didn't you may have some prblems in the next few days. Once you take him to the doctor, they will file the paperwork and report it to the police/animal control. Any dog bits require proof of rabies certificate being up to date. Even if it is your own dog. In the event it is your own the doctor pretty much puts the paperwork in the file.

had a friend of mine get bit by her own dog, and when she realized it was the one who got missed, she had to produce papers on everyone to the city.

Also from the sounds of this, if you take him to the doctor, which I recommend, you then have proof he was injured while with her and you more reason to not let him go back if she gets nasty about it.

Good luck have it checked just because and let animal control handle it.

If need be, file a police report about the dogbite. They will be required to show the Rabies certificate. If my dogs bit anybody, I'd be there, papers in hand just to set the parent's minds at ease! Rabies is ALWAYS fatal if Rabivert isn't started.

As far as the taxes go, the IRS will take care of that. The duplicate SS numbers will flag both returns and they will ask you both to prove the time you had him. I know b/c my oldest son's biological father tried that before my husband adopted him. It didn't fly with the IRS, they had to pay back the EIC they claimed!

If he doesn't want to go over there, that is your first red flag that something isn't right. Trust your gut, but also trust his.

I believe if you took him to the Dr. for the dogbite they are required to verify the dogs shots are up to date. This could be very important. I would insist she provide you the records immediately. If she cannot, I would consider calling the police or animal control.

I would also not let the child over there anymore.

I think calling the Police would be a good idea. She is probably upsed because the dog isn't up to date on the shots otherwise they would show you the proof. Stick to it and don't let him go over there anymore let the kids come there to play. Good Luck let us all know what happened.
