As to this case like it or not you should report the incident. A dog will not just attack with no provocation, with no warning unless it is ill or????? It is possible but not likely this is the first time for this particular dog.

Experience, my sister got a rescue dog. The dog as you report would attack unprovoked with no warning. Her vet told her she should have the dog put down and that is what she did. Not easy but if the tale is as you report that dog needs to be put down.
You really missed the point of his dog story. It is a parody about the mask mandates. It has nothing to do with dogs! The dog story applies the same argument supporting mask mandates to a satirical story of a dog that bites.

Menippean Satire
Menippean satire targets mental attitudes and viewpoints, rather than specific individuals.

Parody
A parody, also called a spoof, a send-up, a take-off, a lampoon, a play on (something), or a caricature, is a creative work designed to imitate, comment on, and/or make fun of its subject by means of satiric or ironic imitation.
