Dog Bite Injuries in Austin: What You Should Know
If you’ve been bitten by a dog in Austin, quick action can make a big difference. Get medical attention right away—even small bites can lead to infection or lasting scars. Report the incident to Animal Control or local police to ensure it’s documented and to check the dog’s vaccination status.
Next, gather evidence: take photos of your injuries, note witness names, and get the dog owner’s contact and insurance information. This helps protect your health and supports any claim you may file.
In Texas, dog bite cases often follow the “one-bite rule,” meaning an owner can be held liable if they knew—or should have known—their dog was dangerous. Even without a past bite, owners may still be responsible if they were negligent, such as ignoring leash laws or failing to control their pet.
A dog bite attorney can investigate your case, deal with insurance companies, and help you recover compensation for medical bills, lost income, and emotional distress. Having legal support also eases the stress of paperwork and negotiations, so you can focus on healing.
If you or someone you love has been hurt by a dog, contact a local attorney as soon as possible to understand your rights and options.
