  I'm sorry to hear that. It is not clear to me if the dog attacked you or the dog owner, which in out discussion would make a difference. Anyhow, the real upset here is the police refusing to take a report. Obviously, this is not unheard of, but it is still forbidden* All reports must be filed. The reporter may need to come to the precinct, but the reporter may not be refused. In Germany the prosecution determines if a report is investigated, not the police. The police officer was therefore in negligence of his duty. You can, without respite or form, file a disciplinary complaint, in your case direct it to the office of the police president of Munich. * That's actually not quite correct. If the report is obviously non-sensical, erroneous, or false the police officer may refuse to file it. You can escalate and you can still file a disciplinary complaint. > In US few million people go to ER with dog related injuries every year! I guess, in Germany it's less. I've only found numbers for Berlin (3.5 million citizens, 130000 dogs) where about 500 dog related injuries are treated each year. But that's something different than a dog attack. I've been injured by dogs, and the dogs were certainly not attacking me. Believe me, if a dog wants to attack you, you get ample warning and you'll notice.
