I know you're right for sure that's exactly what I say and that's exactly how I am.

Yeah I just got done trimming those plants don't they look bushy as hell that's crazy isn't it...
Yeah the centers are all hogged out so now I'm just picking off the little leaves that are trying to pop back up on the inside again pretty much done with trim trimming right now. I may not trim again but just other than pick a leaf off here and pick a leaf off there for the rest of the season.
right now I'm going to concentrate on getting inside and getting all the itty bitty stuff off again and anything that's not going to make any significant buds. then scrog net them. then I won't be able to get inside them anymore after I do that pretty much it'll be done. And away we go to harvest time. Another summer coming down to the final stretch. This year seemed to have went by really fast for me. I don't know about the rest of you all. But this summer flew freaking by I can't believe how fast August went by already I can't believe we're almost to the very end of this son of a gun already crazy. Seems like it just started yesterday. My neighbor come by and said the same thing last night so I don't think I'm delusional LOL it's just Mass hypnosis or something LOL

For me, the older I get the faster it goes. A little unsettling, and helps keep me focused on what's real.

And The Moment can be timeless. Counter measure for that relentless sprint the Reaper seems caught up in.

Lovely grow progress....

That said.

Holy. F-ing. Shit.

I can understand your love for animals but these, this attack?, it cannot be left alone. Those dogs are a problem and I highly suggest you hire a lawyer and file case. I hate to say it. What happens next time? IF this is not an isolated incident, and it sounds like it is not, then worse things will happen. You are lucky to be a large man and armed.

I am absolutely furious for you. The owner clearly knows these dogs are a problem and has not been able to contain nor handle them properly. He, and the dogs, are lucky you weren't armed with more lethal means.

Hell, what if even that small bite gets infected a few days down the road? What if you lose an arm? Leg? Life? Filing doesn't mean you have to ruin the guy, or get the dogs put down, it simply protects you. Dog bites and infections are serious. You and I are not spring chickens any longer. These sort of things are serious. I feel sick for you and the whole situation.

Do what you feel right and best. I simply advise filing to protect yourself in the worst case scenario. Also to protect someone else later. Awful.

I am very very glad you are ok and escaped with minor injuries.

Thank you very much. Yes I'm fine thank you.

The bit marks are all but gone now. Leaving the wounds open to drain for as long as possible and kept them clean with alcohol and hydrogen peroxide with triple antibiotic appointment in between cleanings.

Yes you are right.

The police gave me an incident report all documented. If I would've had any problems I knew where to go to take care of this.
I an the owner had a detail talk about him working his fences. I do believe he is going to be sincere on his promise.
He is about my age. It was quite frightening thing for him I think to be put in the back of the police car and then brought to me and dropped off with handcuffs on he had tears in his eyes. I believe he was very scared about going to jail over his dogs. Even if it wasn't the dogs that he was going to jail for. They were the cause he had the interaction with the police in the first place... he was scared when he came out of the cop car. I could see it in his eyes. He had older kids that came gathered up the loose dogs for him while he was detained and even his mother came by while we were all talking in my front yard.
Yes I'm a pretty good size guy and I did go down to his house with a club in one hand and video phone in the other.. He absolutely knew I meant business. Yes he had the fear of God in his eyes when he left to go get his dogs and even more fear when he came out of the back of that cop car. I think it might have been the best thing for him to have that nudge to push him over the edge to do the right thing.

I had never met him before. he had lived there for 20 years. I've lived here for 13. I never knew nothing about the guy. When I first bought my house (the first 3 months) there was a drive-by shooting in his front yard and a teenager was killed there. nobody's ever caught whoever shot him. It's still an unsolved case.
Well for now I've settled this mono e mono. That's how it will stand for now.
Im good though. I'm not traumatized or anything. If I had wanted to I could have done nasty things to those poor dogs. but I knew I could take care of ot without going to those drastic measures. But on the other hand I was completely prepared to. It's not something I like to do but I've had to do it before. I just have to handle my business.

But if by chance those same dog's come by here again. I have a large fenced yard that Ill lure them into and shut them in. they'll go to the pound after that and I won't care what happens to them at that point.

I have 23 cameras around my house. I can watch 17 of them live in 5×8 screen's on 2 monitors 24-7 and 8 of them anywhere with wifi.
I can see pretty much every thing and knowing anything's that's going on around here. If I don't see it when happens it'll be recorded and I can see it later.
But If the dog's are loose I'll just open the gate lure them in cus they seem to like to chase me now. I'll just let them come on in. Bye bye puppy dog's.

Thanks again friend

Glad you're OK homie ,the plants look great, nothing like the great outdoors I wish I could but watching you an others throw down has been legit

Woah !! Very glad to hear you're ok, my assessment is that you got lucky right there.

Just about this time in 2018 I got attacked by one pit. One good bite right above the ankle that opened me up to the bone. It was a mess, the dog that bit hadn't seen a vet in 5 years, the owners claimed it was a different pit that had bit me, because the one they were claiming was the only one they had that had a valid shot record. I got 2 different strains of resistant infection and was in danger of losing my foot before they found something that worked. It saved my foot and destroyed my gut biology which took a year to restore and during that time the bad gut biome induced high blood pressure. All that came out ok. The dirtbag owner went downtown and lied her a$$ off to a Judge to get an emergency OP, which in turn got my FOID revoked. If not for the fact I had not yet moved my guns from where I'd been living, they would have been confiscated.

I completed the work on the place I had just bought and then sold it at a loss of 4k without ever spending a night in it. Bought a place in the country nobody but me on my road and nearest neighbor 1/2 mile off. 2k $ in medical bills out my pocket no insurance. It takes quite a bit to get me hating, but believe me I've got some for those folks and pits too. I know a lot of good ppl that have them and in my book they are good people with bad dogs. LOL sermon and story over.

Again, glad you're good that could have had a catastrophic outcome, 5 of them killed a mail carrier just the other day. The plants are bumpin' well done sir.

We want to move from here also.
I have the northern land to build on. But the cost is outside my pay range. Just the well and septic is over 15, to 18,000. Or more.. if I do some work myself I figured about 10,000 give or take a couple thousand. Still ugh.
Start looking for something else maybe something that's more a fixer upper something maybe I can get into and actually live there and work on it while I'm waiting for my wife to fully retire.
My wife has rheumatoid arthritis. She has it pretty bad where she has to take shots and steroids. And attacks her joints and their optical cable in her right eye. The eye doctor says one day she will lose her sighting that eye. I'm not sure how much longer she's going to be able to work couple of years??? She's overdoing it right now. Her doctor told her she could go on disability if she wanted to. That was like a year and a half ago.

I've been checking on Zillow and realtor.com and all the realtor sites looking for property. The cost has come down some, the property prices are down 5 to 10 thousand from what they were in May on some of the properties I was looking at. The market still pretty high though. And getting into a stick house may not be an option they're very expensive even for handyman specials. Some of the places I've looked at have been pretty ratty and they've been wanting top dollar for them. If you look back a couple of years some of them had sold for a lot less than what they're offering the house for right now. So it might end up being a manufactured home on a pad. I would really miss having a basement. One of my criteriases I got to have at least two acres. It's hard to do anything on less than that.

"they seem to like to chase me now." -- When I first read this it made me lol because I was thinking you must have tasted good, or maybe they got a buzz from tasting you. I know after my own bite, some of my friends questioned if the dog that bit me got sick or died afterward lol.

But in the long term that could go bad quick if they keep getting out, it sounds like you have it all well in hand, my only suggestion would be that for a while anyway, when outside your own fence you may want to have in hand something you can deal out harm with should you be surprised by them.

There was a lot of details in my story I left out, not that I wouldn't share I just didn't want to contaminate your thread with it. I understand now it was the photos of you being attacked triggered me big time. I went outside and got on the mower and stewed and brewed for 2 1/2 hrs. over your incident and my own. Today I'm going to focus on better times and have a good start to the weekend.

Sorry about that. I didn't mean to stir such great feelings in you. Or anybody else as far as that goes. Thank you all again.

Yes I do have a contingency plan out front now. I have loaded my front porch so that I have good Arsenal in cases it happens again if I happen to be locked out of the front house. Lol.

We live in a neighborhood that is semi-decent for my area. There is quite a few loose dogs now and then. Most of the dogs that do get loose in this area are repeat offenders and they're real gentle and not threatening. They're just big Goofy dogs and their owners are well for lack of a better word stupid about securing them.
But there is the neighbor down the street with this incident here and there has been some other dogs that....I would say are dangerous. But generally they don't come in packs their usually singles. this was actually the second time I encountered more than one dog. The first time it happened it was about a year ago. The neighbor on the a block to the east of me dogs got out. There was a pitbull mix and a mutt. They come at me but they were much more skittish and ran when I came out. I was loaded at that time though.

But like I said I'm not afraid of any dog. I have done my business with dogs and there's quite a few of them that are compost now that I've had to deal with in my life.
I guess being from the farm/ Hunter and dog handler. I just handle business differently than some Folk's do.

Take care friend and thanks again to all of you. Afn rocks.
