Why is my dog aggressive and biting after a vet visit? What to do?

Question

Recently Skylers been acting strangely, it started happening when we took him to the vet to have his annual checkup. When I bought him home I opened the gate to his pen, right away I noticed something was up because he wouldn't come out and he kept growling from the back of his cage. I then put my hand in the cage to see if he would calm do but he growled even more then bit my hand. I took my hand out and there was blood everywhere. What do I do, I don't know what's wrong with him? Pet's info: Dog | Welsh Corgi | Male | unneutered | 6 years and 5 months old | 432 lbs

First off, if you require medical care for your hand, please seek care immediately. If the blood is coming from Skyler it would be best to close the kennel door and use that to transport him to an emergency vet clinic ASAP without having to handle him and risk being bit. The vet can safely sedate Skyler and examine him for injuries or illness and provide treatment for him.
