Research on C. canimorsus infections is limited to a handful of cases worldwide, but the infections appear to be fatal in about one-quarter to one-third of affected patients., Greg Manteufel, developed the same infection after petting several dogs. Doctors had to remove the man's nose, lower legs and both hands to stop the spread of sepsis in his body, caused by the bacteria. Manteufel survived, telling NBC News earlier this year that he does not blame the dogs.
"I don't want people to be scared of their dogs. I want them to be aware of it, but not scared," he said. Symptoms can include redness, blisters and swelling around a bite wound, fever, headache, muscle and joint pain, and diarrhea and vomiting. The CDC urges pet owners to contact a doctor if they have symptoms beyond that of a typical virus or illness, especially if they develop a rash.
Experts say that if you've been bitten by a dog or a cat, wash the area immediately with soap and water, and call a doctor.
I pretty much make out w my dog oh well
I DONT LET MY DOG LICK ME EVER. HE LICKS HIS ASS ALL THE TIME MY DOG KNOWS IT
Mr Frankin you are in the position Patton was. With the correct tool at precisely the right time; to affect history. Please be forgiving of them: They know not what they do. Sam Ervin was nice too.
Oh no... I feel so bad for him It’s hard to say that it’s anyone’s fault because the dog didn’t bite him or anything

What breed was it?
Should have used creamy peanut butter
We humans have infections not animals for God sake!!!!
Licked him where?
Bird crap
the dog licked broken skin or a cut. use bandages
Due to such reasons i.e. RABIES and harmful bacteria, dog keeping is prohibited /discouraged in Islam.
It is gross that people allow their dogs an sometimes even strangers dogs to lick them on the face.
怖いですね。 よく「犬と猫が仲良し」という話とかありますが，人間に限らず，そういう異種間の密接な交流でも相互に稀な感染症を移し合ったりする危険性があるのでしょうか？
