A dog's paw scratched me and it bled
If you are scratched by a dog's paw and it bleeds, you should treat the wound immediately. Wash the wound with running soapy water for twenty minutes, and then rinse the wound with plenty of tap water for ten minutes. Then disinfect the wound and apply alcohol or iodine to the wound and surrounding skin. It is best to go to the hospital for rabies vaccination as soon as possible. Only timely vaccination can ensure that you will not be infected with rabies. Related articles
