Note from Yoda's Wife
Yeah. Maybe Yoda's neighbors abused their dog, or raised it to attack. Who knows.
You certainly have a gift for reading between the nonexistent lines. You're a smart cookie.

For what it's worth, my dog, the one that didn't bite back even though he had every cause to (and in fact has never bitten anyone or anything even when other dogs have bitten him), is half pit bull.
The issue with pit bulls is not that they're inherently anything (other than incredibly loyal), it's that they're strong, so when their owners are careless (or, more commonly, actively encouraging them to be aggressive) they're capable of more damage. So thinking of them as inherently dangerous operates on the same logic as thinking bigger people are more dangerous than smaller ones, basically.

Anyway, I'm convinced the dog itself is fine. It seems friendly, actually, and I don't think I got the full force of the bite. I was actually walking it back to the porch after the bite and it wasn't trying to get me at all and was behaving as if we'd all just been aggressively wrestling or something.
Yes.
Forgive the personal question, but you have health insurance, don’t you? I sure do hope so.

And I do have gross pictures, but some are gross enough that I should probably only PM them, and only to people who super swear they won't be upset.
Here's a safe one at the hand specialist the morning after, though:

I dunno why you've started this crusade, but I don't want any more of it in this thread. You've made your extremely simplistic point already, stop repeating it please.

Or a chihuahua. Those things are truly frightening
Yoda, are you right handed? and was your left had damaged bad? I see the left hand is wrapped some.

The fingernail injury was on the left, but the bite was on the right. And yeah, I'm right-handed. And I'm the lest ambidextrous person you'll ever meet. So it's on the most important finger on my very very dominant hand, and I use my hands for my work and both online and offline hobbies. So this could've been really bad, in an alter-your-life-forever kind of way.

Well. That cracks me up, at least.
