mjko5 -as I said in my previous post "I am not trying to excuse the behaviour". Do you know why this dog was loose in the first place? Did she just have him out running around while training was happening? I don't believe anyone is that stupid! Or was there more of a reason behind why he was out running around??? And how do you know she didn't apologise upfront? sparty - What do you mean she had not spoken to you? Did she ignore you when you tried to speak to her or have you not even spoken to her? How could things escalate when there hadn't even been a discussion between you? I don't believe going through club was the right decision. That is like passing things on second hand. Wouldn't it have been better for you to talk to her? How can you expect her to pay for the vet bill if you haven't even asked her to? Having instructors around does not necessarily mean you were supossed to be training or that you were under instruction. Was your dog under control and doing the right thing? It sounds to me like you need to stop hiding behind the club and this post and just speak to the person involved. She probably isn't that irresponsible and mean after all.

"nvm" What do you mean nevermind? Were you there 2tollers? Did you see the incident? Just out of curiosity, have you asked the aussie owner to pay? Have you even spoken to the aussie owner? I am an aussie owner also and my aussie is very highly strung as are most aussies. My aussie also "charges" at other dogs. There has never ever been an incident of aggression although it does scare alot of dogs. I am not trying to excuse the behaviour either. I would be more than willing to pay for a vet bill if my dog caused injury to another. Was your dog under control? Were you training under instruction? From what you've said Sparty, it doesn't sound like there was any malicious intent whatsoever. By the sounds of it, it was nothing more than an unfortunate accident and I don't believe anyone should be judgemental or place blame until they know all the facts.
