There are many types of wounds that may occur from a dog bite or dog attack. Some of the most common injuries caused by dog bites are:
- Puncture wounds
- Lacerations
- Contusions
- Infection
- Amputation/avulsion/crush
- Fracture/dislocation
- Scarring and disfigurement
In addition to these injuries, there is a chance that a dog bite victim may have a severe mental reaction to the event and suffer emotionally. If the victim is a young child, the chance of a long lasting fear of dogs, fear of leaving the house and separation anxiety are even higher.

The most frequent target of dog attacks is the face
Including the lips, nose, and cheeks, there are approximately 44,000 facial injuries reported in hospitals across the United States each year. These wounds can lead to disfiguring scars that not only affect a person's physical appearance but also have profound, lifelong emotional consequences. The impact of facial injuries extends beyond just aesthetics, often resulting in challenges related to self-esteem and social interactions. Furthermore, scars on the face and other parts of the body may necessitate multiple painful and costly plastic surgeries in attempts to mitigate or eliminate the appearance of the scars, placing an additional strain on both the individual and healthcare resources.
Children are the most common victims of dog bites and are far more likely to be severely injured. Most dog bites affecting young children occur during everyday activities and while interacting with familiar dogs.
Any dog can bite: big or small, male or female, young or old. Even the cuddliest, fuzziest, sweetest pet can cause a serious injury. It is not a dog’s breed that determines whether it will bite, but rather the dog’s individual history and behavior. That being said, some common characteristics of potentially dangerous dogs are strong musculature, short hair, broad and large skull, large and strong jaws, and a wide, muscular and short neck.
