For what you have lost - medical expenses.
Some would sue for pain and suffering, but that's a matter of personal belief. I believe it is wrong to think that "if I hurt, then someone must pay!".
The dog owner is responsible for his dog so you can sue the owner
First of all, your priority should be "Do I need medical attention" not "Can I sue". However, if the bite was severe enough to warrant medical attention AND you were not at fault for the bite (be honest here) then you should approach the dog's owner about being reimbursed for any expenses. If the dog's owner refuses a reasonable request for reimbursement THEN consider making a small claim; NOT before. jeez, what is WRONG with people?
yes i can
You can certainly sue after filing the same as you can before. I think it's fair to say everyone is someones relative. You cannot, before or after BK, sue someone BECAUSE they are someones relative. That doesn't make them invlved or responsible to you for their relatives actions.

your dog bite you when its annoyed or stressed
yes
You can sue without a lawyer. You have the right to represent yourself if you want to. Depending on the severity of the dog bite and your potential for winning - a lawyer may be willing to work with you for free until the settlement. Once you file a lawsuit, the homeowner would likely file a claim at that point.

your dog might not bite you but when it is protecting you it will bite the enemy. my dog has never bit me but it has tryed to bite other people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(that person was terrified)
No, a dog bite is not poisonous.
Both can sue for medical expenses and any disfigurement, scars and such also Punitive damages, punitive damages are meant to punish the person that caused the harm and if they have homeowners insurance they could be sued for several thousand in punitive damages.
