• Poor socialization – dogs which are never socialized are more likely to attack as a pure defense mechanism.
• The pack mentality – dogs in two’s, three’s or even four’s without supervision tend to be much more dangerous that single dogs. Packs of two or more roaming loose on the streets of Los Angeles, can be a deadly menace.
• Sick or injured dogs – Clearly this is a factor for any animal, wild or domestic. Animal control is the best way to deal with a sick or injured loose dog. But owners must take responsibility for the health of their dogs with regular visits to the vet. Children are often the smallest victims of dog bites, which are now responsible for more emergency room visits for children under ten than from any other activities. Most often, a frightening 61% of the time, these attacks happen at home or at the home of a friend, where the dogs are trusted. But small children can appear to be prey to vicious dogs. While owners may claim provocation occurred, a good personal injury lawyer knows that in most cases, children innocently approach dogs, but aggressive dogs can perceive that as a threat.
