Dog Attacks in California
Each year, more than one million people are bitten or attacked by dogs and other vicious animals across the United States. Hundreds of thousands of victims seek medical treatment for their injuries. Although we can take action to avoid going on to property owned by people with dogs and other animals, there are numerous instances where negligent owners let their animals run free. Being attacked by a dog can be extremely painful. In some cases, victims sustain broken bones, muscle impairments, and nerve damages that continue to impact their health and wellbeing indefinitely. The traumatic impacts of dog attacks are expansive as well and can leave victims with anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, and depression.
