Yes, you should consider getting a vaccination for a dog bite, particularly if the dog’s vaccination status is unknown or if the dog is showing signs of rabies. Rabies can be a fatal disease, and timely vaccination is crucial to prevent infection. It's important to seek medical attention promptly after a dog bite to evaluate the need for a rabies vaccine and other treatments. Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

How long before i can get another dog when i had a dog that died of parvo This was a horriable my first dog dies from parvo and i was just horrified i cried for 3 days- i no your thinking wow?

That should always be your main priority! vaccination for your dog, the parvo virus vaccination, its quite easy for a dog to get the virus as it is caused by cat urine and we all know how many cats are around. If I were you I would get another as soon as you like, but get the vaccination before you even take the dog home or ask the owner of the dog has it had the vaccination as most sellers get this done themselves before selling the pups on.


My friend's dog got lost and bite a stranger Will the Dog get put down?

Normally they will not put the dog down. For a first bite the dog will be written up. Ask you local Animal Control Officer about the rules in your area. Hopefully your friend's dog is current on his Rabies vaccination. If not, they will hold him for about 3 weeks. Tell your friend to keep his or her dog in a fenced in yard or kennel or the house and take some obedience classes with the dog plus socialize this dog. He or she should not be biting strangers. Lots of obedience work and socialization will be good for him or her plus kept in a safe enclosed area that he or she cannot get out of.

What do you do if your dog bit your son?

Kill the dog. Reason: a dog is supposed to be your loving pet, a member of the family, and under your control. Good pet breeds will never want to bite humans. A dog that will bite humans once, will bite again, no matter how well he/she is trained. Put the dog down and never take a dog again.
