My dog bit me :/ - September 10th 2010, 07:01 PM

My puppy (she's a shih tzu, so not a big dog at all) was playing earlier, got a bit rough and bit my hand :/ It was bleeding a little. Should I go to the doctors just in case?

Even though dog bites can be dangerous I wouldn't worry unless the cut is deep, or your dog doesn't have its shots. I always play with my dog and he ends up biting me but nothing ever happened to me.

chances are you are fine wash it out well and keep an eye on it if it looks like it is getting infected or you start to run a temperature then go to the doctor. Also if it bleeds for a few days you may need to have it checked out

It wasn't deep at all. I think she just scratched some skin off more than anything. It's my fault more than anything for letting her nibble my hand

You should be fine, as it was only little it probably hasn't done any damage. Just keep it clean and keep an eye on it incase it gets worse.

As long as she's vaccinated, treat it like a normal cut.

If you've had a tetanus in the last 5 years then you shouldn't need one
