I'm not sure if Grace's tooth bled a little or your knee bled a little. Just in case, I will provide an answer for both scenarios. If her tooth bled a little, she is at an age when teething will start, so this tooth will fall out in the next couple of months (it depends on which tooth it was as certain ones fall out sooner than others). As long as the bleeding has stopped, I wouldn't be too worried about it. Have Grace seen by the vet if it keeps bleeding. If your knee has bled a little, just clean it with warm water and antiseptic soap, and put some Neosporin on it. See your doctor if you are concerned about infection from the scratch. I would discourage Grace from play biting by stopping play immediately when she tries to bite. Only resume play when she stops biting. I hope this helps!
