Husky bit Colorado woman's face and handler fled, video shows. Victim needed surgery.

[Captain Stern]

48. But the woman wasn't handling dogs. She was just sitting at a restaurant.

If I came up behind your horse on your property, and got kicked, it would be my fault. If I started to walk up to your horse from behind on public property, and you said "Don't do that, the horse might kick you", but I did anyway, and got kicked..it would be my fault. However, if you brought a horse to a restaurant, and the horse's backside was to me, and you didn't tell me I shouldn't touch it...then that is 100% on you. And if I got kicked in the face, I would be the victim..not the horse.

It wasn't this woman's responsibility to know, or understand, dog body language. That's the actual dog owner's responsibility.

Your example about Pit Bulls killing kids actually supports my point. In that case, you aren't blaming the kids that are killed, but are saying that it's the fault of the owners of the dogs. Unless, of course, you're saying those kids didn't use common sense, which I don't think you are saying.

Yet, in this case, you saying that the person that got bit is somehow not a victim.

The person in charge of the dog in this case has been identified:

I guess we'll see how this plays out. I'm guessing that if this comes down to a civil trial, the person that got bitten in the face is going to be considered the victim.
