might lose a finger tomorrow :(, neighbour from hell

are those english laws as ive been reading a bit today and it seems scotland differs slightly in some aspects

From the Staffordshire Uni site, I don't think they have relocated to Scotland as of yet.

Also go to the Police station report the incident/crime and ask for a crime reference number and give a statement.

the police could see the other side of my finger, they just wanted me dropped off at hospital and to finish their shift from the attitude they displayed, if i dont get a decent answer on the next phonecall i will be visiting the police station in person, harder to fob off a victim bleeding all over the waiting area

this video sums up how i feel at the moment, the dog is probably the only danger and even that i can easily control.

Thats odd as they are usually up for some OT unless the rules have changed.

Reminds me never to try to hail a Police car as a taxi when pis sed especially when the Police station is only 100 yards down the road, lesson learnt........

Hope all guys well with your finger, having nearly severed a thumb some years ago, I know how painful that can be. I'm a bit worried about the prognosis due to the time delay?

Some good advice been given, about pursuing some form of prosecution. I would first give to police the opportunity to act, by making contact again (get your injury sorted first), get someone to act on your behalf.

If you do not get suitable response from the police, would echo the advice of contacting local media and MP.

Hi, ive been a busy boy today, dog warden, housing association and police all dragging heels, i have rang up my local station and asked for a desk sergeant so things should move swiftly, just sitting raging on the inside, i was such a brave boy today that the surgeons are only giving me local :O cant wait to see my own finger getting essentially spliced back together lol, am i allowed to post pictures? they are a bit gory

MP time and Cc' them all in, also just realised you are in Scotland, Neil Clapperton is the CEO of Grampian Housing so do a search for his email address or try to work it out, also,

had an incident myself some years ago, but it was a rottweiler that i was caring for till the owner could be traced. he attacked a staffs, bull and was trying to kill it when i did the same as OP. 3 fingers badly bitten, but none severed. i paid the victim's vet bill, obviously, 2 days later, with hand all bandaged up, brake pipe on my citroen ( hyraulic suspension and brakes) went pop, and I'm under the car hammering the pipe closed so I could get to work, bleeding all over my hammer.

Any pictures of the pinky?

about 40 pictures if im allowed to post i will?

You can post a picture or two but not too gory hopefully

Sorry to hear about your run in with the unruly dog, hope your finger injury isn't too bad.

I'm not a fan of condemning dogs by breed, same as I'm not a fan of condemning people according to skin colour, gender or any other generalised trait.

The behaviour of the dog is squarely the fault of the owner and he, not the dog should be held liable.

I should probably declare I own an American pitbull....and funnily enough today is his birthday.

i agree with you, i dont want the dog punished for the stupid mentality of its owners, i would rather it is rehomed to a suitable owner, ive got nothing against pitbulls, i even owned one myself, but it was muzzled, harnessed and on a short lead unless it was in my garden.

im not particularly upset with the dog, even now im feeling sorry for the boyfriend of the witch upstairs, last time his dog got out because of her being careless, ran down attacked my dog outside , when he came over he wasnt saying much, just wanted to get his dog inside.

i should robably ost the video of this fat witch

 

[elsparko]

cant seem to upload the video, but rest assured it will be on youtube at some point, she is very rotund, obese, disguisting etc

 

[elsparko]

just found this other picture, these bloody cows had some cheek i tell you.

Pffff it isn't that bad if the finger was in the fridge waiting to be re attached then that would be a drama, especially if it was in your neighbours fridge.

could have been worse but still if the surgeons cant reattach all the mess on the inside then they may have to chop it, id rather have my pinky

I was trying to cheer you up with humour ;o))))) and to take your mind off the issue.

the bonus is the pain is quite dull, it looks worse than it feels, all i felt getting the local was it scratching on the bone, ive got about 8 feet of bandages on it, no wonder they cant afford to pay nurses

bit of bog roll and some gaffer tape, be right as ninepence in a week.

I got prescribed some Diamorphine when I did my thumb, which was really great man.

Embarrassed myself though, when I went to the hand clinic a week later. Junior surgeon was so chuffed with his handy work, he went off to get his boss. I thought I'd have a butchers, & fainted sat in the chair. Nurse came along, and said 'you looked at it, didn't you, you stupid boy'.

I had a local when I had my vasectomy and the surgeon asked if I would like to take a "look" I declined.

They are strange lot those surgeons, when I had the snip the guy was banging on about his new Porsche all the way through the process, and at the end he insisted I tugged at my removed tubes to see how inelastic they were. Yulk

 

[surreygirl]

dont think there was any surgeons in last night, their dog is a vicious piece of work, just latched onto my dogs chest/neck area, i was ready to kill this dog this time if it didnt let go in a timely manner, if its him or my boy(my dug) the choice is already made for me.

the hardest part at the moment is trying to keep myself calm, would this fall under duty of care of landlord if they have been reported numerous times and no action taken?

But it on the Landlordzone forum and see what they say. If you google Landlordzone you will get the forum. Poor you and your dog and god knows what that poor dog who attacked is going through, it doesnt sound good. He may be being ill treated. Thank goodness you didnt lose your hand. Some people should not have dogs.

and a lot of dogs should not have people. usually in cases like this, it's not the dog's fault. it's owners that can't undestand dogs' behaviour.

very true, my problem isnt with the dog itself, just the idiots in "control" of it, ive requested numerous times to the dog warden that i do not want the dog destroyed, but rehomed/rehab to someone who has trained pitbulls before, i know it can be re-trained, im half tempted to just take their dog off them and give it to a mate

You may lose more fingers in the process is it worth the risk or don't you like your "mate" ?

im quite selfless when it comes to rescuing dogs lol, done it several times before and made some good little hairy four legged friends out of it, i think they are greatful and remember what i did for them.

cant stand seeing an animal suffering and not do anything about it, i dont want the dog upstairs to be treated as a weapon by their owners, it shows they have little care for him, i wouldnt dream of putting a dog in that kind of danger, i did get the pitbull to submit with my finger in his mouth, so there is hope for the little bugger lol
