Dogs can be sweet, lovable members of the family. As the saying goes, dogs are man’s best friend. However, this unbreakable bond between man and beast isn’t without complication. A dog’s only way of communicating with humans is through behaviors and body language. Frankly, this communication is sometimes ignored by the owners who think they know better.

To avoid a dog bite in St. George, Utah or wherever, make sure you are always paying attention to a dog’s body language. If the dog is indicating to you that it’s stressed or threatened, take the appropriate action. In any case, if the dog bites you and injures you, talk to your lawyer for help.
