Today, the family dog was in the garbage and wouldn't stop eating. He is a large dog, and I had to put my arms around him and pull him out of the trash can. Well, he bit me so hard I was bleeding. My whole family is siding with the dog and saying it was my fault for not letting him eat. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I was playing with my dog, teasing her, to cheer myself up after being dumped by my girlfriend. My dog bit me hard and I had to go to hospital. The dog has to be put down. FML
Today, a dog bit me, tearing a hole through my sweatpants, my shorts, and my underwear, all to get at the dog treat I'd hidden in my pocket. FML
Today, I got bitten by my aunt's dog. My brother was holding the leash. He said he didn't pull the dog away from me because he didn't want to rip my shirt. Meanwhile, the dog was biting a penny-sized chunk out of my hip. FML
Today, my sister asked me to let her dog out of the kennel when I got home. I did only to have the little beast bite me. She then ate the entire content of the cat's litter box, which she couldn't keep down. FML
Today, I dog-sat for my neighbors' pitbull. Weighing in at 100 pounds with a nasty bite, this dog is no lap dog, but I treated it as one - not knowing how deadly this dog could be - beckoning it towards me with my hand. I now have 6 stitches in my hand and arm, and the neighbors didn't pay me. FML
Today, my stepdad is insisting that we either get rid of my dog or euthanize him because he bit me. FML
Today, I was eating with my boyfriend and his family at a high-end restaurant when, suddenly, I screamed, thinking a dog had just bitten my leg. I am terrified of dogs. I kicked my under-the-table assailant as hard as I could. It was my boyfriend's adorable five-year-old sister. FML
Today, the dog my now ex-boyfriend and I own together bit me bad enough that I needed stitches on my face and my hand... he then broke up with me and saying it was all too much for him and has kept the dog... FML
Today, I took my dog to the park, and he ran straight into a group of people having a picnic. Naturally, he grabbed the biggest piece of meat in sight and ran off with it. As I chased him, I tripped and fell in front of everyone. My dog then sat and chewed the meat in front of me. FML
Today, I was eating and my dog kept bothering me. She kept scratching my legs for food, so I took a large piece of fish from my plate and tossed it out into the hallway. It flew right into my mother's face. FML

That dog is food possessive and needs that worked on. There are a few ways this can be corrected but the dog probable gave you a warning growl that you didn’t hear in the trash. Dogs communicate too they don’t just do something. If your family lets the dog do whatever it wants, good luck.

This was a learning Experiance for the dog. it was your chance to show them that's not right. if you have a food aggressive dog you need to show it who's boss. Because I have kids I would play in my dogs food while hes eating. You cant expect other people either kids or adults to never have food around your dog. and one good accident and the dogs dead and you can be screwed too.

I'd punch that dog in the motherfucking face in front of God and everyone. I don't care if my family sided with him so much they got a lawyer.

Oh they claim to be "siding with the dog" but they stood by being useless while he was at risk. He might have eaten a guts-stabbing toothpick or guts-blocking old sponge, or unsafe-for-dogs food. OP was SAVING HIM not picking on him. SOMEONE in the family needed to take responsibility. Dogs are like babies- too stupid to be in charge of themselves. Would you leave a baby to play with a knife because he wants to, and because getting it away from him might be risky? A loving owner maintains control over their dog for its own good if nothing else. They don't just stand there as he eats garbage! Useless idiots, to not do anything to help, and on top of it they have the nerve to insult the wounded hero! That dog definitely needs training. Should've had it to begin with but better late than never. Pisses me off people are even allowed to have untrained dogs, really. Dangerous to their owners and to the public.

I honestly don’t trust dogs. I prefer cats, they attack for the sake of having fun and being ninja, instead of trying to rip your arm off over some food. Send the dog outside, that’s where they should stay. (With food, water, and adequate shelter of course)

Please don’t ever get a dog

dog's are not supposed to bite the hand that feeds them. biting others is normal because they're protecting their pack but of course very bad if they are biting strangers however, to bite their owner is a bad sign. maybe a vet visit to get some input on the situation and to see if you can correct this behavior. if not maybe reevaluate who the dog is around (elderly, small kids) and decide if the dog is still a good fit for your family. especially if this habit is one you attempted to correct as a puppy but wasn't able to some dogs are just more aggressive sadly.
