Hi all,

Yesterday afternoon my 3-year-old daughter was bitten on the face by a dog outside JP Licks in Davis. I just wanted to say a general thanks to all the Davis Square denizens who came over to help us out, calling 911, bringing napkins to try to stop the bleeding, water, ice, and so forth. I didn't catch any names or, honestly, see any faces since I was so focused on my daughter, but I know there were a lot of people offering help and I appreciate it.

FYI, she needed nine stitches and will have some scarring, but she's doing fine. It remains to be seen whether she'll ever want to go near a dog again (or whether I'll let her!). We didn't get home from Children's till midnight so we're pretty wiped today.

And here I thought I was being paranoid when I sidestepped a leashed pit bull outside of JP Licks this morning. I mean, I know that most dogs are not likely to lash out, but how can I tell the difference? Especially with dogs I don't think I could take in a fight.
