Brief Answer:
I think you are safe specially if there is no break in continuity of skin.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If there is no cut or break in the continuity of the skin layer then there is nothing to be worried about.
Was the bite provoked or unprovoked?
Was the dog pet or stray?
Where is the injury?
I could get a fair idea if you send me a photo.
But dont worry I think you are fairly safe.
When you reply also do let me know when the bite happened?
