If you are bitten by your own dog and it bleeds, and the dog has been vaccinated against rabies, you only need to wash the wound with soap and water, squeeze out the blood from the wound, and then apply iodine or alcohol for disinfection That's it. If you are bitten by a stray or wild dog, it is best to go to the hospital to get a rabies vaccine after cleaning the wound to avoid being infected with the rabies virus.
