on 05/10/10 i was a guest at the motel 6 in evans colorado and was walking toward my room when a man who worked for the motel as maintenace aproached me with a very large bulldog.as he was aprochjng i asked him if his dog would bite and he replied that the dog wouldnt bite so i continued in my direction. when they were within a few feet of me i kinda paused and squated down so that i wouldnt seem like any kind of threat to the dog.when they got within the dogs leash distance
the dog londged at me and bit me on the throat.i went straight to my room so that i could look in the mirror to see how bad my injury was.i was bleeding quite a bit from puncture wounds that were left behind from the bite. blood began to soak my shirt and chest.at that time it occured to me that i had better ask the owners of the dog if it had all its shots.i went to the front desk and spoke with the manager who is the girl freind and co-owner of the dog.i informed her that i had been bitten by their dog and she told me that she thought it was best if i left the property and if i didnt that she would call police and have me removed. i told her to call an ambulance also.the police were called as was the ambulance and i was told by police that the owner who was on the property wanted me to leave.i was treated for my wounds at the greeley hospital.i have tried many times to speak with the owner and he has hung up on me

So you get bit by a dog in the neck, to the point where the blood is soaking your shirt and the only thought that comes into your head is "Gee I wonder if the dog had it's shots".  Then when the police and ambulance come the only thing that they tell you is that "the manager wants you off the property".  I really wonder what the rest of your little story is. 

What happened to the dog?  Because in a case where the dog is not provoked it is likely that Animal Control would have been called to quarantine the dog.  Then the owner(s) would usually have to go in front of a judge to see if they can get the dog released.

Was the dog a pit bull, rather than a bulldog?  Pit bulls tend to go for the neck, where as bulldogs go for the face.

Also, why on earth would you make an attempt to make friends with a dog you dont know?  That is beyond dumb.  Even if an owner says he wont bite, that is not a statement of guarantee.  Because of your actions, the dog probably percieved your actions to be an attempt to dominate him, and instantly saw you as a threat.  Instead of submitting, the dog attacked you.

If you were bit in the throat, I would like to see pictures as I am wondering how you survived.  I also find it odd that you were immediately requested to be removed and that the police were needed to get involved.  Im sure we are getting a small snippet of the real information.

While animals are the responsibility of its owner, people can and do intentionally antagonize animals with disastrous results.

Since the manager wants to cover this up

Go to the Police and swear out a warrant for "Assault with injury" against the Manager, th owner is responsible for his dog's actions.

Also you have the Hospital, Ambulance and Police report on your side.

Go get him.
