Dog attacks can cause far more than visible physical injuries. Victims may experience significant pain, scarring, nerve damage, infections, and the need for reconstructive procedures.
In addition to medical treatment, dog bite victims often face emotional trauma—particularly children—such as anxiety, fear of animals, sleep disturbances, and lasting psychological distress.
Michigan law provides important protections for individuals injured by dog attacks, and liability may arise even if the animal had no prior history of aggression. These cases require careful documentation of injuries, medical treatment, and the emotional impact suffered by the victim. Pain and suffering, disfigurement, and long-term psychological effects are often substantial components of a claim.
