Company gaurd dog bit me as I walked between the factory and the office building. Not a lost time injury but it spooked around German Shepherds for a few years. I was head down looking at the plans I was taking to the office to discuss with the plant manager when it came up and grabbed my left arm with authority. I had it hanging from my arm on the tips of its back feet when it let go. I was trying to figure out what to do and had not arrived at pull my knife out my pocket or nothing yet. It was over faster than it started. Now we have two of them and they are very loyal.
