Home Dog Bite

2018-06-06 15:18:38
Our home friendly guard dog today morning around 07 00 AM bit my hand wounding the superficial skin layer. He is a Doberman Pinscher, 12 months old up to date on vaccines & deworming. I was recommended to apply Mupimet ointment by a local pharmacist. Do I need to take any shots??
