PIT BULL ATTACK VICTIM ALMOST HAS THUMB AMPUTATED IN BELL GARDENS. CALL DOG BITE LAWYERS OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TODAY.

Dog attacks can happen to nearly anyone, but when an animal control officer is bitten, it makes non-professionals appear even more at risk. Dog bites can be deadly. If an animal attacks a major artery or blood vessel, or if the attack is particularly vicious, wounds and blood loss can kill the victim. Or if the victim is a child, elderly person, or someone unable to defend themselves, an animal attack can be fatal. Injuries incurred in a dog attack can include lacerations, broken bones and amputation. Pit bulls are often responsible for dog attacks, but other breeds can attack humans unprovoked. If you or someone close to you has been hurt or killed in a dog attack in the Southland, call 1-800-ALAWPRO to talk to a lawyer for free now.

A female animal control officer nearly had her thumb amputated by a two attacking pit bulls in Bell Gardens. The officer was called on a complaint seemingly unrelated to the pit bulls when the animals charged her after getting free from their ties. They pinned her to the ground though she defended herself with a baton. One of the offending dogs was euthanized.
