Peyton got bit by a dog(little long)
I went to p/u Jordan from her friend's house(I am very good friends with the family too). I had Peyton(15 months) with me in the stroller. We walked into the yard and was chatting with a few friends that were there. All of a sudden Peyton started screaming crying and I see their dog go running away from her. One of my friends said she thought the dog was sniffing and licking her arm. When we looked, he had bit her . Totally unprompted while sitting in her stroller . I felt so bad for her. She had one 2 inch scrape and welt and another smaller welt. Like where the two fang teeth would be. It did not totally break the skin, so I think she will be fine, but OMG. It could have beem so much worse. I have to say that this dog is a yellow lab that I know well and she is so... mellow and friendly and never would have expected this from her. I guess you can NEVER really and fully trust a dog. Lesson learned!

PLEASE take her to the Dr or emergency care!!! Dog bites are very serious and can cause infection, even if you don't see any broken skin. Doesn't matter if the dog has shots, is clean, etc.

At least call the ped and see what they suggest, but I am sure she will be fine. I can't believe that! I am glad the bite wasn't serious.

I would call the Ped, just to make sure it doesn't get infected.

I agree. My son was just in the hospital for a week with cellulitis in his hand from a dog bite. It was 2 little marks but the whole hand blew up overnight.

I posted this before but someone I know had their nephew attacked by the family dog. The EMTs that showed up said even the calmest, mellowest dogs attack - particularly in hot weather.

Re: Peyton got bit by a dog(little long)
Oh wow I am so sorry. This is the second dog bite I have heard about today. My FIL was also bitten by a dog. His doctor told him to come in for a tetnus shot. I would call your ped (even the emergency # as ask).
