What potential claims can be filed for dog bite injuries?

Pet owners have the legal responsibility for their dog’s behavior. In most dog bite cases, the owner of the dog will be required to pay for any damages suffered by the victim. These damages may include monetary compensation for:

• scarring and disfigurement
• pain and suffering
• medical bills
• lost wages

Who pays for injuries in a dog bite accident?

Because injuries sustained from an animal attack can be very serious, many states make it difficult for dog owners to avoid paying liability for their dog’s actions. In Minnesota, dog owners are held responsible for injuries caused by their pet. The law doesn’t just include dog bites. It also includes injuries caused by being knocked down or falling as a result of a dog’s actions.
