Arizona Dog Bite Cases
Arizona has very specific laws regarding dog bites. The state follows a strict liability law which means that the owner is responsible for the dog’s actions in almost any case. The state expects dog owners to properly handle their dogs, especially when in a public area.
Whether or not the dog’s owner is aware of the viciousness of a dog does not matter. The state expects the owner to take all reasonable action to prevent a dog bite from occurring.
Identifying Liability
To collect compensation for a dog bite injury in Arizona, we must identify the liable party(s). In order to determine liability, we need to establish that:
- The injury was, indeed, from a dog bite.
- The dog bite occurred on public or private property on which the injured party was legally allowed.
Failing to demonstrate these two important elements can make it difficult, if not impossible, to collect compensation. For example, if someone was trespassing at the time of a dog bite, they will likely not be eligible for compensation.
It is possible that additional parties’ may be liable when a dog bite occurs. For example, if a property owner is aware of a dangerous dog but does nothing to prevent the dog bite from occurring, they may be liable. Additionally, a dog walker must take the same reasonable actions an owner would to prevent a dog bite.

Arizona’s Dog Bite Statute Of Limitations
Arizona limits the time in which we can file a dog bite case. We must fill all dog bite claims within two years of the date of the bite. Failing to meet this time limit can make you ineligible to collect any compensation that you deserve.
Your recovery is the most important thing following a dog bite injury but keep in mind that it takes time to build your case.
