Mack Press, the New York Dog Bite Lawyer, has proudly partnered with the Long Island Ducks, because they share a love of two things: dogs, and baseball. And with baseball season around the corner and dogs getting to go out and run, people are getting excited for the spring.
Unfortunately, however, baseball season is also dog bite season, because some people don’t know how to keep control of their dogs. All it takes is one out-of-control dog to cause serious pain and ruin an otherwise lovely day, especially if they choose to attack a child or someone else equally defenseless.
How to Prevent Dog Bites
If you are taking your dog outside, and especially if you’re going someplace like a public park to enjoy some baseball, make sure they are properly trained and socialized so they don’t freak out around strangers. You should also make sure to keep them on a leash so you can control them if they decide to get aggressive.
You should also be on the lookout for dogs who might be prone to biting. Watch for these signs:
- Dog walking around without a leash
- Dog showing signs of stress, like flattened ears or shaking
- Dog growling or nipping at strangers
- Dog refusing to listen to owner’s commands
- Owner not paying attention to dog
- Owner refusing to intervene when they get aggressive
Holding Negligent Owners Responsible
When dogs bite, it is often the result of negligent owners who refuse to handle their dogs appropriately. That is why it is so important to hold them accountable.
This can not only help you get justice, it can also prevent other people from being bitten in the future. That is why you need to speak to an experienced attorney, who can advise you on how best to handle your dog bite case.
If you have been injured due to a dog bite, you should contact Mack Press, the New York Dog Bite Lawyer. He will fight for you, while also ensuring it is the owner, and not the dog, that gets held accountable.
