Dog attack report

In a dog bite incident, a distinction must be made as to whether the dog itself was attacked or a person was bitten by a dog. In both cases, it is necessary to report the dog bite or attack to the responsible public order office of the injured party or the police.

The competent authority checks the dog in question, witnesses are heard and previous incidents are taken into account in order to determine the risk posed by the animal and to take the necessary measures to protect people and animals from danger.
