I'm playing a druid. I see a rabid dog. I can't cure it:
- Cure Disease spell only works on me
- it won't eat a blessed Curaria Mancox herb

If there's a potion of cure sickness, throwing it at the dog probably won't work, too. But it would be interesting if you could cure rabid dogs this way. They don't necessarily need to become tame as a result.

Naturally, 'rabid dog' is a separate monster type, so no curing is possible from technical point of view. It would have to be transformed into a big dog... or a random dog.
