[Product Image]   Animal Bites and Attacks
 

Animal attacks can result in serious and, at times, permanent injuries. The most common type of animal attack is a dog bite. Unfortunately, most dog bite victims are children. It is not uncommon in today's society for dog owners to train their dogs to be overly aggressive for the purposes of protecting and dog fighting. Often, young children cannot tell the difference between what looks like a playful dog and an aggressive one. In some cases the individual has done nothing to provoke the attack.
