Dog Bite Statistics
Dogs are often considered our best friend, and their companionship can certainly brighten a person’s day and alleviate loneliness. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that 36 percent of American households own a dog. In total, there are an estimated 90 million dogs in the US. With that many dogs, there is a risk of dog attacks. Even dogs that seem friendly may pose a hazard.
