no disrespect ment but i get tired of people who play the where there is blame, there is a claim card
if you get to see the amount of dog claim photos that i see then you will have a different way of thinking. the days of postmen and dogs being the butt of jokes belongs in the stone age. people are allways traumatised by a dog attack, no matter how minor.
there is nothing dishonest in being traumatised.
people deserve to be compensated for there injuries through either neglect or incompetance of the dog owners.
there is also a financial cost involved with dog attacks.
for every £1.00 lost to the individual through sickness, it costs the employer £11.00
