Florida Dog Bite Laws: Know Your Rights
Florida Dog Bite Law Statute 767.04 establishes Florida as one of 36 states that apply strict liability to dog bites. That means Florida dog bite victims don’t need to prove the animal was aggressive, or even that the owner was negligent—so long as the bite occurred while the victim was in a public place or lawfully on private property, the owner can be held liable.
Despite Florida’s strict liability rules for dog bites, there are exceptions that can prevent owners from taking full responsibility. For example, if the bite occurred on private property where a sign with the words “Bad Dog” was prominently displayed, the owner may not be found liable. Or if the person bitten is found to have provoked the animal, or if their negligence in any way contributed to the incident, the owner’s liability may be reduced.
