Owning a dog can be one of life’s greatest pleasures. However, if you have a dog and that dog attacks and/or bites someone, you can be held personally liable. Your homeowners insurance policy will likely insure you for any personal injuries that your dog causes. By the way, the insurance industry pays on average close to $300 million in compensation to dog attack/bite victims each year.
I found a website that may provide help to you and your family in dealing with the consequences when your dog attacks and/or bites someone else and that party becomes injured. Please click here for a link to that website.
