Dog Bite

Every year approximately 4.5 million people are bitten by dogs. That’s roughly 2% of the population of the U.S. Most of these dog bites never get reported, making it more difficult to document how big the problem actually is.

Over one-third of canine owners have dogs for protection. Depending on how these dogs are trained, there is a much higher risk for attacks if they are unsupervised or uncontained. Most guard or ‘attack’ dogs are pit bulls, Rottweilers, mastiffs, German shepherds, or Doberman pinschers.

Children Are Often The Victims of a Dog Attack

Unfortunately, most victims of a dog bite injury are children. Kids between five and nine years old suffer the majority of the serious injuries reported each year from dog bites. If you or a loved one has sustained a personal injury due to a dog bite, you should first seek medical treatment to have the injury treated, and then contact an experienced New York dog bite lawyer.
