Glad it wasn't worse. The doctors seem to be very aware of regional reports of rabies. Rural dogs exposed to tangling with wild animals seem to be the
worst risk.
I learned raising malamutes that making eye contact does weird things. Even reading books about primates brought forth warnings about eye contact.
I've experienced it on the street (thankfully in my car), the dog comes after the car, but if eye contact is made they go nuts.
I don't believe in striking animals. With the malamutes if they did something wrong I made eyeball to eyeball contact and maintained it. They looked
away with tail hanging low. I guess it is some kind of animal "challenge".

In my case that wouldn't be so bad. Selective hair growth, that is.
Edit: I meant regional hair growth.

Update on My Dog Bite
Thank you, Nomads, my friends, for your concerns about my welfare.
The dog that bit me is a dog known to the neighborhood and is vaccinated.
The little beagle is in heat and the small black dog that bit me was most probably trying to protect his interest in the female.

I got bit on the back by a dog in Mulege. He lived down near the fishing pier. Opened a nice wound on my back. Dog appeared nuts. There were two
folks walking their dogs, I happened by & the dog suddenly attacked.
I went into town & reported it to the police. While I was filing the report, the radio crackled & the mobile unit was down by the pier asking
for more info on the dog, description, owner, etc. I was impressed.
Went to a friend's house, he's a doctor. "I hear Rex got you," he said. Huh? Everybody knows this dog? "Yeah, we've seen him attack half a dozen
people. Probably twice that many other dogs too." He washed the wound & dressed it, sent me for antibiotics. He gets bit several times a year
volunteering at the local vet clinic.Next day, dog was on a leash chained up.
Coupla months later I was hospitalized for an unrelated infection. In the ICU the nurse did a physical once over on me. "What's this on your back?"
Dog bite, blah, blah, blah. She put a giant peel & stick dressing on it. Several days later the dressing started itching madly. Seems I'm
allergic to the glue in the peel & stick part. The glue killed my skin in an oval shape around the dog bit. Now it looks like a shark bite,
'bout a 5 footer I'd say it was.
I guess it was a dog shark. Named Rex.

our biking friends left us with a device that REALLY works!...it's called a "dazzer II"...i think they meant "dazer" but were spelling
challenged....anyway, when you push this button, it emits a high pitched signal that only dogs can hear and they HATE it and run the other
direction...no kidding..i have tried it on a few dogs that invaded my space and to the dog, they run the other direction...it's harmless, just not
pleasant for dogs...check this unit out and carry it with you...roz never goes on a walk in mulege without this thing in her pocket...we also carry a
small, cigarette lighter size pepper spray just in case...very effective!
