How to Respond to a Dog Bite
If you or a loved one is bitten by a dog, you should understand the steps to preserve a legal claim against the owner of the dog that bit you. Consider these tips after you suffer a dog attack in Bowling Green:
- Get immediate medical attention: If the bite pierced your skin, seek medical help immediately. Animal bites carry pathogens that can make you ill. A bite wound delivers those germs under the skin and could cause serious infection beyond the damage of the bite.
- Notify authorities: Dogs or cats that bite must be quarantined. If you are bitten by an unfamiliar dog that has fled, try to remember where it came from and what it looked like. Report the description to the doctor, or to law enforcement officers called to the scene.
- Photographs: Take photographs of the location where you were bitten and the dog if possible. Identifying the dog is critical to ensure you are not exposed to rabies. It is also important to locate the pet owner for purposes of liability.
- Speak with an attorney: Contact an experienced dog bite attorney in Bowling Green as soon as possible.
