Firstly, the bite isn't that bad. I have a toy poodle pup and when I was playing rough with her she accidently bit my nose hard and I heard a CRUNCH and all this blood started pouring out. I applied pressure to it and am holding ice to it and the bleeding lasted about 8 minutes but it stopped. My septum (the skin between my nostrils) is cut but it is pretty small and isn't cut all the way through the entire septum. It is on the surface and when I pull the cut apart it looks like she took out a small chunk of skin! It hurts but just looks like a small cut through a bit of my septum when it's not pulled apart. It is swollen and when I pull it apart it looks like a tiny piece of skin is gone and it is all red. Im scared I will have a scar... What should I do and does that sound bad?

You need to go to the doctors. Everytime your bit on the face by any animal whether they have had their rabies shots or not you need to get a rabies shot. If she did take some of your skin out though sadly it won't grow back will scar and make an indent where the skin used to be.

It is good to let it bleed a bit, this helps eject any bacteria from her teeth that might have gotten into your nose, Dogs dont have the cleanest mouths. Maybe put some hydrogen peroxide on the bites to kill any othey bacteria that could cause an infection. I usualy use some tea tree oil, or Emu oil on those kinds of wounds, because they seem to help heal them up a lot faster, some folks use a triple antibiotis like neosporin, but for me tea tree oil has worked very well. I recently got a pretty good scratch on my face, and now you can barely see where it was. But then everyone heals differently, I guess. If its not very deep, you probably wont have any trouble anyway,

It shouldn't be that bad, but from when you said that when you pull the cut part apart it looks like she took out a small chunk. That doesn't sound very good...But my friend got bit on the nose too, and it was just really red for a week, and it went away after that

i'm a tremendous fan of German sheperds. My relations had numerous at the same time as i become growing up. they are astonishing relations dogs and intensely dependable. in addition they earnings from education. once you've the variety of excellent canines, they ought to understand what's ideal behavoir and what's not any longer. that is not odd for an animal to be below pressure at the same time as on the vets. He ought to have even picked up emotions from you at the same time as he become being taken to the vet. he's not a risky canines yet any canines must be with out the right education. dogs are going to bark. it is what dogs do. in spite of the undeniable fact that in case you experience he would not stay with you if he noted yet another human being once you're strolling, it is a secure practices problem no longer only for the different human being yet also your canines. it must be person-friendly for a canines to get out of their leash and collar and bounce out into site visitors or chase a worried stranger. education is impressive for both the owner and the canines. education creates extra of a bond and is a few thing the completed relations may be an element of. i'm particular your little fella is and could be a impressive member of your relations yet you'll experience extra guard feeling like you're on proper of issues.
