Dog got me in the back of the leg because I was young and ignored his growling warning. My own dogs once or twice breaking up a fight. Turtle took a bite out of my shorts once but missed my butt thankfully.

My own dog bit me in the ass.....by mistake.......he was going for a bit of meat in my hand and I turned away and he wanted it....my ass was in his way....didn't break through the jeans I had on....but he was so embarrassed he would NOT come near me for a few days.

The worst bite was a horse I used to ride a lot. I was feeding him apples or carrots or something like I often did and the SOB bit me on my stomach. It didn’t break the skin surprisingly but did leave a big bruise and hurt like hell for a half a day but I got back in the saddle and we forgave each other even though I’m still not sure what transgression caused him to bite me. I guess even horses have bad days once in awhile. 😉
I use to tell people that feeding a horse from your hand is teaching them to bite you. I don't remember anyone who listened. I've been bite by 2 dogs and had a lemon shark graze me with an open mouth.

German Shepherd in the face when I was a kid. A dog I had known for years, still not sure why it happened. My dad was a physician, he took me the ER, shooed away the attending and sewed me up himself. No scars.

Oh yes, several dogs and several cats. Gotta be really careful when nutting a cat, they will perforate your hand through a leather glove.
A couple horses, a momma pig nearly ate me once while I was nutting her pigs.
Nobody mentioned a pocket gogher yet. I was cleaning a burrow in preparation for setting a trap. The targeted gogher grabbed hold of my finger.

About a year ago I reached across to wake my 74 year old wife from a nightmare. She bit my forearm through flannel PJ sleeve and drew blood. She still has bad dreams but I'm more carefull when waking her from them.

A dobe tried to take off my left leg above the knee when I was 4, unprovoked. Was my brother that saved my bacon that day. Rat bit me when I was 8.
Then I discovered what ballbats and guns were for and it's been kinda one sided since, 'cept for my Ex. She didn't get a second chance.
I am..........disturbed.

Couple of dog bites breaking up dogfights. Still got a pretty good scar on my calf from one of them.
Got a scar on my shoulder from a fight where the guy latched on to me, he finally let go after I stuck my thumb in his eye and told him he was fixing to lose it.

How did you get the girl to let go, officer? Lol...my personal worst was an alligator, but it was pure stupidity on my part. Catching frogs one night with a chick I wanted to impress, I snatched up a little gator, about 2' long. I assured her that they can't hurt anyone and let it bite my left index finger. Holy [bleep], it didn't hardly have any teeth, but I'd have sworn Hulk Hogan had me with a pair of channel-locks and wouldn't let go.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

When I worked for SWBTelephone lady said she had a friendly Nowegian Elk hound in her back yard and he was just as friendly as could be.She opened her back door he jumped on me and bite me 3 times,24 stitches in my arm later.I no longer trusted anyone when they had a dog,I did not care what breed,it was locked in a room in the house where I was not going to be needed,period.
