We know that many dogs are close and gentle to people, but only to themselves. The same kind of dogs are full of malice, so some dogs will get into a fight when they see each other, and sometimes they will even be completely injured. Therefore, owners should pay attention to wearing a leash when taking their dogs out to prevent the occurrence of this kind of incident. But what to do if another dog comes to attack your dog and the dog is bitten at that time, we have to take certain measures.

After the dog is bitten, the owner first checks the size of the wound to determine its severity, and makes symptomatic treatment based on the severity of the dog's injury. First, kick off the hair around the wound and clean the wound with physiological saline to reduce inflammation. At the same time, apply anti-inflammatory powder or iodine on the surface of the wound. This is mainly used to treat minor bites. If the dog's skin is torn off, after completely cleaning the wound according to the above method, wrap the wound first, and then send it to the hospital.

When treating wounds, owners should not forget to use antibiotics and other drugs to prevent secondary symptoms from the wound that endanger the dog’s health. Dogs that are bitten very seriously should also be treated with targeted methods, such as infusion, hemostasis, etc.

In order to prevent our own or other people’s dogs from being bitten, we must not forget to help our dogs wear the leash when taking them out for a walk. This can effectively avoid being bitten.
