What Are Your Legal Options After a Dog Attack in Georgia Parks?

Parks are meant for recreation, but dog attacks can disrupt a pleasant outing. In Georgia, dog owners are responsible for ensuring their pets are under control, especially in public spaces.

Common Causes of Dog Attacks in Parks

• Off-leash dogs in restricted areas.

• Lack of proper training or restraint by the owner.

• Aggressive breeds with known behavioral issues.

1. Seek Medical Treatment: Dog bites can lead to infections and scarring.

2. Report the Incident: Notify park authorities or animal control.

3. Gather Evidence: Take photos of injuries and the dog involved.
