After being bitten by a dog, you need to rinse the wound with water immediately and disinfect it with soap. If the bite bleeds, you need to squeeze out all the blood from the wound. After squeezing out, apply alcohol or iodine on the wound. Then it is best to go to the hospital for rabies vaccination, which is safer and safer. Generally, dogs raised at home are less likely to carry rabies virus, while stray dogs or wild dogs are more likely to carry rabies virus.
