A flight attendant is looking to get $5 million from Jennifer Lopez for a dog bite. The woman filed suit last Thursday for a July 3, 2006 flight aboard a jet, where J.Lo boarded with a German Shepherd who was supposed to be a "well-behaved guard dog," according to court papers. The flight attendant, Lisa Wilson, walked past the dog who began "attacking her and biting her pant leg." She fell, injured her lower back, and is no longer working after a surgery last year.
