Animal bites can leave children and adults with severe scars and nerve damage that remain for a lifetime. Emotional injuries, infection, painful lacerations, punctures, abrasions, crush injuries, facial and other fractures are not unusual either. Victims may be forced to undergo painful, lengthy, and expensive rabies treatments. The medical bills following an animal attack can be significant. Years after an attack, they may need plastic or cosmetic surgery to improve the appearance of scars.

The attorneys at Allen, Allen, Allen and Allen know the Virginia laws and ordinances which impose liability on negligent animal owners for injuries their animals inflict on innocent victims. In some towns or cities, local ordinances require that dogs walking or running on public streets be secured by a leash and under the control of the owner or an attendant. A pet owner may be held responsible when the owner allows an unattended, unleashed dog to attack and injure someone. Likewise, an owner must use reasonable care to prevent injury to persons who may come in contact with his animals while visiting his home or property. This is especially true when the owner or caretaker knows one or more of his animals has a tendency towards dangerous or vicious conduct or when the owner is aware that one of his pets has attacked or bitten a person in the past.
