DOG BITE VICTIMS

Jo Echelbarger

Jiryiah Johnson

Zoey Hawkins

Covil Allen

Victims of severe dog attacks often suffer acute damage, which may require
$300,000 to one million dollars in specialized medical care treatment.
Reconstructive surgery, such as skin grafts, tissue expansion and scar
diminishment, often requires multiple procedures over a period of years. Medical
studies show that pit bulls are inflicting the majority of these damaging
attacks.


IN DEPTH COVERAGE

DogsBite.org contains hundreds of accounts of victims of serious and fatal dog
attacks. We examine various aspects in great depth to show the multi-layered
dangerous dog breed problem.

These two sections of the website highlight the most dangerous dog breeds, pit
bulls, rottweilers and fighting breed derivatives, and the types of
breed-specific laws cities adopt to regulate them.


DANGEROUS DOGS

Pit bull terriers were selectively bred for dogfighting. This is why pit bulls
don't let go once they bite. Learn about other fighting breeds, pit bull owners,
the false myths they spread and the danger of adopting a pit bull.
