Dog owners are responsible for the harm caused by a dog bite, no matter how carefully they guard or restrain their dogs. Under the strict liability dog bite statute, the owner of a dog is liable for the damages suffered by any person who is bitten by the dog while in a public place or lawfully in a private place, regardless of whether the dog has been vicious in the past. 

Under the one-bite rule, the owner is liable if they knew or should have known that the animal might act in a dangerous or harmful way. The name of this theory comes from the idea that an animal gets one free bite, and after that, the owner is aware of and responsible for the animal’s vicious tendencies.

“I received greater than triple what I had in mind at the onset.”

What Should I Do After A Dog Bite Attack?

  1. Call 911
  2. Immediately seek medical treatment as you may need vaccinations
  3. Report the incident to the owner and local animal control
  4. Take pictures of all injuries and damage caused by the bite
  5. Obtain the dog owner’s information and their homeowners or renters insurance policy.
