Elders and Dog Bites
Our furry best friends bring us a lot of joy, but all dogs are capable of making mistakes if they are scared, hurt, or confused, so dog attacks are an ever-present threat in modern society. Elderly victims are the second most common victim of dog bites in America. Often, the elder is attacked on their property while gardening or getting their mail.
