Dog Attacks Can Happen to Anyone

Dog bite lawsuits are some of the most emotionally distressing cases personal injury lawyers handle in San Jose. A dog attack results in psychological trauma, in addition to physical injuries, and the lasting disfiguration can affect the victim’s life in so many ways. When you watch this video, you’ll meet a diehard optimist who was attacked by a dog and lived to tell her story.

Kyle Dyer was a local news anchor covering a story in Colorado. Toward the end of her interview, she tried to pet a dog who hadn’t been exhibiting any sort of threatening behavior. The dog attacked, and Dyer sustained disfiguring wounds to her face. After a long recovery, Dyer now shows no signs of facial disfigurement, and she’s made strides in raising awareness about dog attacks.
