Over 250,000 people per year are bitten by dogs in the UK.
Although most of the victims are children, many adults are also
attacked. Worryingly, the problem is not limited to dogs that are
generally thought of as dangerous, such as rottweilers, mastiffs
and pit bull terriers, but also household breeds, which include
collies, spaniels and labradors. A dog bite can cause
serious injuries, which may have a devastating effect on your
life. If you have suffered a dog bite injury, you could be
entitled to compensation.
