New Mexico dog bites happen every day. These
injuries result in permanent disfigurement
and psychological scarring. Keller &
Keller understands the vicious propensity
of certain breeds and concentrates in pursuing
justice from negligent dog owners.
Over 1,000,000 dog bites are treated
at medical facilities across the country
each year, and the number is increasing.
The growing problem of serious injuries
due to dog bites, particularly involving
children, has become a national concern.
So much so, that the third full week of
May has been designated "National
Dog Bite Prevention Week," with the
Center for Disease Control and Prevention,
the American Veterinarians Association,
and the United States Postal Service working
together to educate the public about this
growing national threat.
Injuries from dog bites can be serious,
or even fatal. Children, many times, are
the victims. Due to their small size,
children are usually bit around the face,
head, or neck which often cause permanent
scarring and disfigurement as well as
serious injury.
If you or a loved one has suffered such
harm, contact Keller & Keller for
a free initial consultation.
