[QUOTE="soberups, post: 736248, member: 14668"] I'm not normally one to advocate frivolous lawsuits, but this dog owner was clearly negligent and it sounds like you got chewed up pretty good. You should file a lawsuit for pain and suffering. Bear in mind that UPS's workmans comp carrier is [I]also[/I] free to sue the owner to recover the medical expenses it paid out on your behalf for the ER visit. You said you were off work for a week; does that mean you were on TAW, or did you actually miss out on a weeks wages? Unless I'm missing something, your injury should have been covered under workmans comp. In my building, you would have been on TAW and guranteed your average number of daily hours. I am a hardcore dog lover; but I am also of the firm belief that, unless provoked, any dog that bites a person needs to be euthanized. [/QUOTE]
