The owner of a dog may be liable for damages if the animal bites someone or causes injury. Liability depends on who controlled the dog at the time of the incident. The owner or the person in charge of the dog is typically responsible, but mere presence does not imply liability. Victims must prove the injury and its connection to the dog's behavior, which can include falls caused by the dog. Compensation can cover medical expenses, lost income, and property damage, but the victim's behavior may affect the amount. Documenting the incident is crucial for claims, including gathering witness information and medical records. Police reports can assist in identifying parties involved, but are not mandatory for civil claims.
