Unexpected Dog Bite Dangers

Dogs are a staple of companionship in American homes—more than 53 million dogs are kept as pets, which is more dogs per capita than anywhere else in the world. Owners enjoy the love, loyalty, and playfulness dogs can bring to the home.

Unfortunately, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that more than 4.7 million people suffer from a Connecticut dog bite injury every year. More than 800,000 of these dog bites need medical treatment, nearly 400,000 need emergency medical attention, and around 16 people die from dog bite injuries annually.

Someone seeks medical attention for a dog bite every 40 seconds in the United States, according to the American Humane Association.

Connecticut dog bite injuries are more common than measles, whooping cough, and mumps combined! And the real danger is to children—more than half of all dog bite victims are under 14 years of age.

The Connecticut dog bite lawyers at Carter Mario know the letter of the law in dog bite cases and have helped victims like you recover the compensation they need for medical care, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Dog bite accidents can be costly—the American Veterinary Medical Association has reported that dog bites cost approximately $102.4 million each year in the United States. Call today and get the compensation you need for your Connecticut dog bite injuries.

Negligent Owners

Negligent owners often leave dogs tied to fences, chained in confined spaces, or even let them roam the streets freely. Dogs need proper training, and owners should always take the time to learn the demeanors of their pets to be able to judge how they will react to social situations and properly warn those who will come in contact with their dogs.

The tragedy is that many negligent owners aren’t held responsible for their actions. The Connecticut dog bite lawyers at Carter Mario are committed to holding owners responsible when their negligence results in serious injuries or death. Dog owners have a responsibility to ensure the safety of visitors or passersby that come in contact with their pets.
