A dog may attack for a variety of reasons.
Many dog bite injuries occur when a dog is trying to defend or
protect its territory, establish dominance over his or her victim,
is in a new, unfamiliar, or threatening environment, when disturbed
while eating, sleeping, or coveting a toy or treat.
Many dog bite and dog attack incidents may
have been avoided if the owner had taken even the simplest of
precautions, such as properly chaining their dog up, ensuring the
dog collar was properly fitted so they could not slip out and
attack, and not leaving their dog unattended and roaming freely.
There are several factors that may increase
the likelihood that a dog will bite or attack:
-
A dog that is not
altered is three times more likely to bite.
-
A Dog may often
attack when they are chained up or the victim of any form of
mistreatment.
-
Male dogs bite
more often than females, especially those between the ages of
one and five.
-
All breeds of dog
bite, although statistic show that Rottweilers and Pit Bulls
perpetrate approximately half of all dog bite related
fatalities.
