If you’re not sure if the dog got a rabies shot, then you might need to get a tetanus shot. Depending how severe the bite is, it may require doctor visit.

If ever there’s a scuffle between dogs, it’s advised to use an object, not your own body in between, to break it up, to avoid injuries being inflicted.

To avoid food aggression issues in the future it’s advisable to ensure each dog has its own space while eating.
