 Some Facts About Dog Bites

            There are 50 to 60 million dogs kept as pets in the United States.

            About 800,000 people require medical treatment for dog bites each year.

            Approximately 12 people are killed each year in dog attacks.

            Children make up 60% of all dog bite victims.

            Children ages 5 to 9 are at greatest risk of dog bite attacks.

            Most dog bigte injuries to young children are to the head, face and neck.

Connecticut Dog Bite Law

            Connecticut dog bite law makes someone who owns or keeps a dog strictly liable for injuries caused by the dog.  This means that to win a personal injury dog bite case, it is not necessary to prove that the dog attack occurred because the owner or keeper was careless or negligent.

            As long as the victim of the dog bite was not teasing, tormenting or abusing the dog, or had not entered private property intending to cause harm, the keeper or owner of the dog is responsible for the dog attack.  This is true even if the dog had never previously shown any dangerous behavior and the dog attack was totally unexpected and unprovoked.
