It depends on how deep the wound is. If it is serious, then take him/her to the animal hospital. If it isn't that bad, then look for some medicines that would work for bites that are sold in pharmacies
(been there done that)

If bleeding gently dab with a cotton ball

If the bite is on the dogs body other than its head get a cone

wash out the cut every day with soap and water

it might sting a little but it gets the germs out

If after a week it still bothers your dog I would suggest seeing a vet
if your dog gets bitten by anothr dog then you need take your dog to the vet as soon as possible. your dog could catch something deadly and can be in a lot of pain. it's better to be safe then sorry.
Take it to the vet immediately and give it a rabies shot. Do not attempt to do anything to the wound but if the dog is still engaging a fight, take a hose and spray the dogs with water. Throwing or spraying water is the best thing to do in a dog fight.

Edit: If it's just you, spray 'em down (as above) if you can. But, stay out of the way. DO NOT, by hand, try and separate them. If your dog's vaccinations are current, you've already done as much as you can, they don't need another rabies shot. If one won't release, knock it out with whatever you can get your hands on.

On the training field, do it with two people. Both just grab (firmly) the dogs rear legs and swing them away from each other. Keep 'em swinging until they're out of fight or with particular breeds, pepper spray or military CS Gas them. WARNING: If you CS gas a dog you also need the antidote/eyewash and they will require medical attention.

If the dog proves too aggressive, knock it out (with anything handy, once I've had to use a shovel) or shoot it. In 30+ years training, including military, I've never had to shoot one. Although I've one chew through a Kevlar vest and was working on the titaian lining before I could reach the spray.

Have both put under "observation". If your dog's vaccinations are current (and most trainers won't let you on the field if they're not) you're probably okay. If either is rabid ... well ...

That's your worst case. Sometimes, it may require a stitch or two but if vaccinations are current, that's about it. It's not nearly as bad as it sounds -- really bad part is bringing a dog over which you have no control for training with other dogs, rather than privately.
if a dog gets bitten by another dog. keep an eye on your dog. if it seems sick take it straight to the vet. if not, it'll probably be okay

If both dogs have ALL their shots it will be okay as long as it is kept clean.

If biter is infected or missing shots but victim has all shots, wound should be kept clean and see a vet.

If victim is missing shots but biter has shots then victim should go to vet immediately. Give the dog its shots ASAP and keep the wound clean.

Wash the area and rinse with water for several minutes. If it is a large bite area, check in with your doctor regarding antibiotics and/or stitches. Report the dog and have it checked for rabies.
