Dog Bites

All dogs, no matter how docile, can bite under certain circumstances. Dog bites are traumatic events that can have catastrophic results. Vicious dog bites to the face may cause injuries severe enough to require months, even years of painful reconstructive surgery. Severe dog bite attacks can cause life-threatening injuries to the spinal cord, brain, or vital organs. There may be extensive psychological damage, especially to children, in addition to the physical injuries suffered by dog bite victims.
