What should a non-K9 officer do if bitten by a police service dog?

Full Question:
Sir,

I was wondering what an officer should do when he is bitten by a police dog and he is not the dog handler. I am at the Indiana police academy and this question was asked to the recruits. Thank you for your time.

Stand very, very still – do not bite the dog – do not fight with the dog and do not scream (easier said then done).
