Even small dogs can display aggression and cause serious injury to a person. Check out this video for one example of a careless dog owner whose small dog attacks an innocent passerby.
Without provocation, the dog attacks a man walking through a park. Though the dog’s owner insists that it was an accident, the victim’s injuries are significant, and he files a report with the local police department. The dog has a clear history of aggression, perhaps due to issues with his training or his temperament.

Even though the incident was an accident, the woman is still responsible for her dog’s behavior and may face legal action from the victim. If you’ve been the victim of a similar situation in the Chicago area, call (773) 365-0040 to reach Shea Law Group and discuss the compensation you may be entitled to.
