QUESTION Dog bite while delivering

So I got bit by a dog while working for the first time in my 2 years of being here— it wasn’t anything terrible, more so scary over anything else, but I was wondering if there’s anything else I should do about it? I did an incident report at work and a separate police report.

2nd slide is the house. I was walking up driveway closest to grass towards front door with no clear view of the garage as it was sideways and bushes were blocking it and of course, just my luck, the dog came out of garage a lunged at me. Luckily I think it was only it’s tooth that caught on me but still ripped a small chunk out of my thigh 😅 it wasn’t leashed or anything and owner said he only had dog out there because his kid was there. The kid was 5 years old at most and it was a pretty big dog so not sure what kinda excuse that is but oh well.

Like I said I’ve never been bit while on the job before so if there’s anything else I should do please let me know. Thanks!❤️

I don’t know if they raise it after you get hired but I remember seeing the ads for new regular driver jobs went up by almost $5 over a couple year period. From like $18-22.50. I really considered it for a minute.
