I was recently surfing the internet when I came across a webite that promotes the establishment and strict enforcement of community efforts and legislation to prevent dog bites from occuring. The website, www.p-a-c-k.org, or Parents Against Canine Killers, promotes education and safety amongst dog owners to prevent agression and subsequent dog bites and attacks. As a Fort Lauderdale dog bite attorney, I was shocked to see how graphic this site was in getting its message across - calling dogs loaded weapons is a little extreme.
According to the site, 1000 people will go to the emergency room today alone for treatment for dog bites and animal attacks. Most of the victims are children who suffer bites to the face, neck and head. Additionally, most of these attacks will result in permanent scarring and disfigurement. PACK's goal is to educate the public on why dogs attacks occur and how owners can prevent same. PACK's concerns rest primarily with the actions of dog owners and not necessarily the agressive instincts of these animals.
