An attack by an aggressive dog almost killed Javon Roberson.
Since the attack, Javon is hard to understand because he lost several teeth in the incident.
He had more than 200 stitches and spent more than a week in the hospital.
Fortunately, the majority of dog bite victims don't end up in the emergency room like Javon, but they can just as dangerous.
Doctors say the dangers from dog bite are two-fold. One is the infectious dangers from rabies and bacteria of the dog's mouth. The other is really around the trauma of the bite itself.
