Generally, dog owners are legally responsible for any damage their dogs cause to property and / or any personal injuries to a person or a child. This liability for dog attack injuries is imposed on the dog owner irrespective of whether or not the dog has ever caused harm to anyone else before or bitten anyone else previously. This sort of strict liability is imposed on dog owners because innocent people who are attacked by dogs should be able to recover for their injuries because of the dog's dangerous tendencies as well as the inability of the owner to control their own dog.

Additionally, while some people who have suffered serious injuries from dog bites have been determined to be contributory negligent where they acted or failed to act in a particular way which partially caused them to be bitten by a dog in LA, then the amount they may be able to recover may be reduced, but they will almost always be able to recover for some, and sometimes all, of their injuries. The types of injuries one may suffer from a dog attack includes bodily injuries where the person may suffer bites to the face, puncture wound in the arm, and depending on the size of the dog, people have suffered serious injuries and even death as a result of California Dog Attacks.
