Biting Back: Protecting Victims of Dog Attacks in Houston
A dog bite can be more than a painful injury; it can lead to serious infections, permanent scarring, emotional trauma, and unexpected medical expenses.
In Houston, dog attacks happen more often than many realize, leaving victims and their families to navigate both physical recovery and financial challenges.
Texas law allows victims of dog bites to pursue compensation from the owner or other responsible parties. Claims can cover medical bills, lost income, therapy, and pain and suffering. These cases often require careful documentation and experienced legal guidance to ensure victims receive the full recovery they deserve.
A Houston dog bite attorney can investigate the circumstances of your attack, gather evidence, and fight to hold the responsible parties accountable.

What Are Some Common Injuries From Dog Bites?
After a dog bites you, you may suffer from physical injuries that outlast the initial bite, some of which include:
- Lacerations;
- Bleeding;
- Nerve damage;
- Broken bones;
- Tissue scarring;
- Rabies infection;
- Pasteurella infection;
- MRSA infection.
Who is Liable For My Injuries?
According to Texas state law, if you are the property management or the owner/possessor of the dog who has inflicted the bite, you are responsible for any damages brought on to the victim.
- Property Management: May be held liable for the injuries sustained if they fail to rid the area of a known dangerous dog or fail to give proper warning to those in the area about the potential danger of the animal(s) on-site.
- Owner/Possessor of the dog: After a dog bite, the owner or the possessor of the dog may be held liable for negligence. For example, the owner or possessor might repeatedly allow the dog to be off-leash or fail to properly train or control the dog in public or private settings.
