Vaccinated Dog's Bite is Dangerous?
Our domesticated dog (1 year old beagle), who has received all the vaccinations from his vet, has bit on my wife's thumb. The thumb nail broke and it was bleeding. Should it be a concern for vaccination against the dog bite? For the cure of the wound, I cleaned the wound with Dettol followed by smearing betadine ointment and covered by cotton bandage. Is the vaccination required?
