LONG BEACH DOG BITE

California Dog Bite Law (California Civil Code 3342) law states that the owner of a dog is liable to anyone bitten by the dog in a public place or in a private place if they are there lawfully, including the dog owner's home. The civil code creates "strict liability" so that dog owners are held responsible for their animal's actions, even if it is their first time biting someone or if they never showed signs of aggression in the past. Furthermore, if someone is just watching over the dog as a caretaker, it is likely the caretaker will not be held responsible for the dog's actions. An action against the owner of the dog may be brought against them to determine whether the dog needs to be removed for public safety... The severity of a dog bite injury normally requires extensive medical care that can leave a person with an overwhelming financial burden as well as lingering physical pain.
