Dog Bite

[Ah Pook]

Most folks don't keep rabid dogs around the house

Speak for yourself. I squirt a little Dawn into their mouths so they look extra rabid.

If the owner left the scene without giving any info, I would report it to the police. +1 on having a doctor look at it. Dog bites can get infected and that is no fun.

You need to keep an eye on the bite for any red around any puncture wounds. Draw around any red with a pen. If it grows, you are risking blood poisoning. You're looking at ER antibiotics in several doses about 6 hours apart.

If it was recent enough and you can flush the wound with Bactine or similar, it might stave it off.

It happened to my Fiancee' a few years ago. Once it set in, she had a heated blanket maxed out with me laying on top of her to keep heat and she was still shivering. We ended up with 3 trips to the ER for it.
