Potential Dog Bite Injuries<\/h3>\n
The most significant risk of dog bites is an infection, especially to immunocompromised victims. You never know what diseases a dog carries that can transfer to humans. However, multiple other physical injuries can occur, including:<\/p>\n
\n
Broken bones<\/li>\n
Rabies infections<\/li>\n
Skin wounds, such as cuts, scrapes, and bruises<\/li>\n
Damaged nerve tissues<\/li>\n
Torn muscles<\/li>\n
Scarring and other disfigurements<\/li>\n
Loss of limbs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Additionally, recovering from emotional injuries can take months or years. Common issues include:<\/p>\n
\n
Nightmares, especially in children<\/li>\n
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)<\/li>\n
Anxiety<\/li>\n
Lowered self-confidence, thanks to scarring and disfigurement <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Steps to Take After a Dog Bite Attack<\/h3>\n
You must take particular action following a dog bite attack to protect your health and legal rights:<\/p>\n
\n
Leave the scene immediately.<\/strong> Don\u2019t keep yourself in a dangerous situation by speaking with the canine\u2019s owner.<\/li>\n
Seek medical attention.<\/strong> Even if your injuries seem minor, adrenaline is probably pumping through your body, and thus you may not realize how serious they are until later. Seek medical attention as soon as possible to receive a diagnosis.<\/li>\n
Contact local authorities.<\/strong> Whether you contact the local police, sheriff\u2019s department, or animal control, inform the authorities of the incident. Give them the names of all witnesses, if applicable, and identifying information about the dog.<\/li>\n
Request a copy of the official report.<\/strong> Once the authorities complete the official report, request a printed copy. Doing so will help your case. Additionally, gather the names and contact information of the authorities that help you.<\/li>\n
Contact your experienced dog bite lawyer.<\/strong> Get in touch with our dog bite attorneys to discuss your case as soon as possible. We\u2019ll ensure your rights remain protected and will work to secure the compensation you deserve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
National Dog Bite Statistics<\/h3>\n
According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA)<\/a>, more than 4.5 million people in the United States suffer dog bite injuries annually. More than 800,000 receive medical attention for the physical injuries sustained. That equates to 1 in 5 victims requiring prompt medical attention following a dog attack.<\/p>\n
Further, more than half of the victims are children. Children are also far more likely to suffer severe injuries as the most common victim age group. Unfortunately, children commonly sustain injuries during everyday activities and from dogs familiar to them.<\/p>\n
Preventing Dog Bites<\/h3>\n
Although dog attacks aren\u2019t entirely preventable, you can take steps to reduce their likelihood. Canines bite for various reasons \u2013 sometimes, they bite in defense, while others may have an injury or illness and want to be alone. Whatever the cause, you can lower the risk of an attack in the following ways:<\/p>\n
\n
Don\u2019t approach a dog you don\u2019t know without the owner\u2019s express permission.<\/strong> Even friendly-looking dogs can bite if they feel threatened. Always ask permission first. Owners know their dogs\u2019 mannerisms \u2013 you don\u2019t.<\/li>\n
Avoid risky situations.<\/strong> Understanding when you should and shouldn\u2019t interact with a dog is essential. For instance, avoid approaching or petting a canine if the dog isn\u2019t with its owner, is on the other side of a fence, is growling or barking, appears anxious, or hiding.<\/li>\n
Train your children around the family\u2019s dogs.<\/strong> Explain to your children the difference between aggressive and safe play. Further, remind them to stay gentle with the family dog \u2013 no wrestling or provoking. Teaching your children how to interact with your dog appropriately allows them to remain safe around other potentially harmful canines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
