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.

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.
