Dog bite injury – dog bite accident

Dog Bite: American dog bite law consists of civil and criminal law, found in state statutes, county and city ordinances, and court decisions. These laws vary widely among jurisdictions.

Man and woman's best friend bites more than 4.7 million people a year, and key experts believe that public education can help prevent these bites.

Each year, 800,000 Americans seek medical attention for dog bites; half of these are children. Of those injured, 386,000 require treatment in an emergency department and about a dozen die. The rate of dog bite-related injuries is highest for children ages 5 to 9 years, and the rate decreases as children age. Almost two thirds of injuries among children ages four years and younger are to the head or neck region. Injury rates in children are significantly higher for boys than for girls.
