Attacked by dog in downtown Athens yesterday.

Homeless guy's big ass bull mastiff. Had to go to ER with bite to hand. Now I have to get rabies shots.

dang, what did they do with the dog?

You’re a better man than me. I’d be hunting in Athens today.

Shocking in this town how many “homeless” people have dogs these days.

I guess the thought is, “I have to beg to feed myself, might as well bring a dog into the equation”.

Maybe I’m just an angry old man (no doubt) but if you’re under 60 and healthy and you’re standing on the corner begging…it’s on you! They do it because it pays better than working. They also do it because drugs and mental illness are tough in the workplace.

I filed a police report and just got a call from ACC Animal Services saying they are looking for the dog. It's on camera fortunately.

Athens voters getting what they voted for.  They want to be a deep blue ultra lib city.

I agree.  Not sure if this link is gonna work or not, but this is a place I ride by frequently and have noticed that there's basically a whole as homeless camp in the woods in this space.  Thing is, I see vehicles dropping people off out by the road.  There's at least one chevy trailblazer I see parked back there at times too.

Just off 78 near Sam's club.

Not that I saw. I think he pulled him off me by the collar. Beastly mutt only had one eye.
