    It really doesn't matter either way. A loose dog caused your accident. And even though you are hurting, who knows what that accident might have prevented? Perhaps if the dog hadn't stopped you, an 18-wheeler a quarter mile further down the road might have with worse results.

    Hows that blood pressure?

    This topic got way off base about the dog. The man just wants to know what he should eat - I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to know the dog was injured, but really, it's not even the point. Stray, not stray, injured not injured - he's injured and wants to know what to eat. Reel it in, peeps.

    I say eat maintenance to heal and not gain weight. If you have doubts, check with your doctor (or maybe he could recommend a nutritionist to speak with on the topic). I hope you heal quickly!

    Hitting a dog on your bike isn't a joke. My Dad shattered a helmet and multiple bones after a similar collision. Even a small animal can cause a crash, so you should absolutely try to avoid it and not just "ride through"

    I would up it to maintenance level, what ever the outcome is of losing or gaining. A few broken ribs and bruises are no joke and your body needs to heal the first time.

    you are not waiting to get an inflammation or other unwanted issues. Let your body heal for some time.

    Was the dog a pit bull? Because my answer may change if it was.
    (just kidding, I love to stir the pot sometimes)
    I echo the other comments that staying at maintenance calories is probably the best bet.

    If anyone knew about the dog who caused this, the owner(s) could successfully be sued for letting the dog run loose.

    Ugh I'm sorry (for you and the dog). I'd eat at maintenance for sedentary :(

    Yet another reason to not like dogs for me!

    because they have accidents sometimes? so do humans.

    The dog didn't have an accident; its owner did for letting it run free in the road. The owner of the dog should have been sued for this, but of course, there's no way of knowing who the negligent owner is. My father, when he taught me to drive, emphasized that NO ANIMAL is worth more than MY LIFE. If an animal is in the road, whether tamed or wild, do not swerve, do not slam on your brakes, and if you hit it, oh, well. Just last year three teenagers died from swerving to avoid a freaking raccoon on the road.

    Timothy's accident was completely avoidable had the dog's owner been responsible enough to contain the dog in a fenced back yard or in the house.
    So did the parents find the racccoon's owner and sue them? Or did the raccoon have a collar on?

    Unfortunately, the raccoon escaped unharmed so there was no way of telling.

    Of course, the victims lost lots of calories as they died.

    Sued? Really?!? Wow people will sue over anything these days. Also- how do you know the dog was owned? He could have been a stray.

    Completely avoidable? Really? Again, it could have been a stray. Glad you have psychic powers to know if was completely avoidable. Along the line of this argument, one could say he was at fault as well. He could have been paying attention better and seen the dog (not saying you actually did anything wron OP, just pointing out the absurdity of this post).
