To think that the other owners shouldn't pay even though their dog injured mine?

I'm pretty sure it was my own fault. Was walking my greyhound this morning and there was a couple walking a couple of staffies, both friendly looking so I allowed my dog to say hello, they were all nicely sniffing and wagging and then my dog growled and before I had chance to pull him away he went for one of the staffies, except the staffy was quicker, my dog ended up with a big split on his front leg, the staffy is fine, not a mark on him!

The vet said he is very lucky as the wound is right next to a blood vessel and it could have been a lot worse if that had been punctured. He is in the vets now waiting for stitches :(

DP is furious and thinks the other owners should pay, bit I don't think so, after all, my dog went for theirs in the first place and their dog acted in self defence!

He is BU isn't he?

You'll find that most dogs were originally bred for fighting other animals. For anyone who knows a greyhound/lurcher it's hard to believe that some can and will kill cats/ rabbits if they are taught to. Doesn't stop them being great family pets.
