Some really great advice so far. I'd make a report with animal control immediately. It's their job to talk with the owner, not yours.

EDIT: No way, RE: talking with the owner first to keep things cush... faack the owner! What that dog did is serious, not something you just forget about and "hope to work out". It is your responsiblity to make your experienes with this dog known to the proper authorities.

How many times have people been mauled by dogs and then after the fact the neighborhood says, "Oh ya that dog was nasty, we should have reported it". If someone would have done something about it as soon as the problem was indentified, a terrrible situation could have been averted.

Get serious dude, you were assulted.
