That the phrase 'hair of the dog', used when a hungover person drinks alcohol in the morning to make them feel a bit better originates from when people believed that when you were bitten by a dog and got rabies, you had to take the hair from the dog and put it in your wound to cure you. The reasoning behind this was that a little thing of something bad would work as a cure, much in the same way that immunization injections work.
