I also agree with your advice about bites always being an emergency. My parents' dog was left with a dog-sitter one time, and he got bit by another dog while in their care.

He had gotten his claw stuck in the mechanics of our recliner and ended up managing to break his claw off. It wasn't a true emergency, but I did rush to the vet with him because I wasn't sure if he had done any other damage.
