I am an EMT. My training says....Bite. You could go as far as to say puncture, rip, tear, avulsion. But that depends on what kind of damage was done.
puncture
If a dog bit you and didn't puncture the skin, no, no rabies. If you mean there is no dog blood in the wound but still your blood, yes, chance of rabies.

A black fly bite on a dog appears the same as it would on a human or anything else. It looks like a large mosquito bite, but the affected area will be much more swollen, tender, and red.
Make sure your dog is up to date on his Rabies & DHLP/Parvo vaccinations. Take your dog in to be checked out by your Veterinarian and see what he or she has to say about the bite wound plus the Vet can treat the wound at that time. Bite wounds have a tendency to become very septic and infected so best to have a Veterinarian check out the bite wound.

As with any dog bite, there is a risk of infection if the skin is broken. See you Doctor if you have been bitten by any dog, and be sure to investigate to see if the dog is up to date on it's Rabies shots.
A cat bite on a dog is treated by a vet according to the severity of the bite. The dog could only require the wound to be cleaned. The vet may prescribe antibiotics as a precaution to prevent any related illnesses that may occur. Normally a dog would not require stitches from a cat bite. The vet would determine the medical needs of the dog.

If it was a non-poisonous snake bite, you would treat the puncture wounds as you would any other wound. Dab on antiseptic (liquid or cream) daily until the wounds are healed. The important thing, according to the question, was that it was non-poisonous.
After a dog bite, clean the wound with soap and water, apply antibiotic cream, and cover it with a clean bandage. Seek medical attention if the wound is deep, bleeding heavily, or showing signs of infection such as redness, swelling, or warmth. Be sure to also report the bite to local authorities for further investigation.
