    Unfortunately it is the owners fault. This is why I was so concerned about rocky, who seemed to have aggression towards men. Just have them do the best they can to appease the man, and not get angry, accidents do happen. Best of luck!
    Maggie,

    Well, that man needs to be politley educated. My Layla bit anyone who came up and petted her, because she would be easily startled. I never touch ANYONE's dog without asking first.

    Applesmom said it very well. It is definitely the dog owners fault. There is a responsibility to control your dog. I had a foster that bit someone once (it was definitely not that person's fault). I attempted to be apologetic and offered to take the person to whatever doctor/hospital he wished to be checked out at. However, he indicated that since this was the second time he had been bitten by a dog (not one of my dogs, as a matter of fact not any of the dogs in our area) he was fed up and wanted to call the police. I politely waited until the police arrived gave them my information and took the foster and Ginger home. The man signed a complaint against me for failure to control a dog on leash. However, he never showed up at any of the court dates. Unfortunately, with my job I cannot be appearing on the municipal court lists, so I have had to stop fostering until I have my own property.
