Every year in America approximately 4.5 million people are attacked by dogs. Almost 20% of all dog bites will become infected. Dog bite victims can be exposed to disease, disfigurement, disability, PTSD, and even death.
It is no surprise that dogs whose owners neglect their emotional and medical needs are more likely to bite. As a direct result of this neglect, victims of dog bites are exposed to numerous dog borne diseases. Swift attention by medical professionals with a keen focus on all of the possible disease transmissions is essential. Some of these diseases include, but are not limited to:
It is a sad reality that disfigurement and dog bites go hand in hand. When a dog intends harm to a person, the damage done by teeth and claws will be swift and can be profound. Disfigurement can be physically and emotionally painful and alter the way you feel about the person looking back at you in the mirror. Treatment for wounds inflicted can be expensive and may not yield the desired results. While disfigurement can sometimes be treated with plastic surgery, many insurance companies will not cover this type of treatment.
Unfortunately, many people attacked by dogs will have some degree of disability for an indeterminate amount of time. Time off of work, medical bills, physical pain, and many other costly results from your attack will complicate your healing process and cost you money. Temporary and permanent disability are both stressful potential outcomes of a dog bite.
Luckily, state laws are on your side! When a dog has done you harm, local laws tend to favor the injured party. You should not be left to handle the costs of treatment, permanent injury, loss of wages, and emotional damages alone.
