[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here- so went to ER and they waited 4
Hours to be seen. The ER said they do not have a plastic surgeon they can call in. However the doc said the wound had already closed enough that he thinks natural is better than to stitch or glue. He cleaned it before making that assessment. 
    He said he has 4 daughters so understood his concern. 
  By 2am I think we were too exhausted to think. 
Antibiotics prescribed.
   Today I texted my dermatologist friend because it’s oozing a bit and I’m second guessing the doc. She said it’s too late now to do anything but antibiotics. I wish I could show a pic. It’s to right if her mouth snd small but deep/ does look closed. 
  I’ll try the X cream one poster suggested - and derm friend may suggest a cream. 
   Dog is ours. He is temperamental and I would re home him in heartbeat- but is daughters dog and she adores the little nasty thing! [/quote]

Your own dog bit your kid in the face abs you are keeping it? What is wrong with you?

DD doesn’t have a say in this.  It is unsafe and could potentially bite someone else’s child in the face.  How would you feel if this happened to a friend of hers at your house or a young child? Maybe they would lose vision/an eye? Think about this logically OP.  HUGE liability [/quote]
