[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised the urgent care did not have you fill out a dog bite form from the county. Your insurance company will usually ask as well.[/quote]

Yes. They is part of why we went there - to make sure we followed proper protocol. They did not ask us to fill anything out. This is in Moco, fwiw. [/quote]

In general, the urgent care should triage whether a report should be filed.  In this case, it doesn't sound like a reporting case.  Your child initiated contact.  Both you and the dog owners used normal precaution, but the dog was still defensive and bit.  [b]This is not dog aggression, but an accident.[/b]

This is not the type of dog bite that animal control is trying to control.  So, I think that they treated your child and the urgent care did not consider it the type of incident to report.  I think you let it go.[/quote]
Ok, if you say so. But insurance company would sure want dog owners to pay if medical bills warranted. [/quote]
