How can you be found when nobody knows you are missing?

My dog came into me half and hour ago with her face covered in blood. After cleaning her off I found that she has somehow cut her ear.
The bleeding seems to have slowed now and she only really bleeds when she shakes her head. I have no idea how she cut herself but I'm a bit worried. You guys think she'll be ok? It's 00:52 here now so no vets are open but I can't sleep or anything due to worry. Here is an image of her ear. As I have said the bleeding seems to of stopped.

Am I over worrying? I can't get to sleep cause I fear something might happen.
Also she keeps licking the matress, that normal?

If the bleeding has stopped, then quit beating yourself up. This isn't really e-vet territory, but depending on how it looks tomorrow, you might give your vet's office a call and see what their advice is (wait & see vs. come in and make sure its clean). I'd guess that she was scratching her ear and got a little overzealous. At any rate, put some neosporin on it (safe for dogs, according to my vet) and keep an eye on it for infection as it heals up. You might also want to see if your dog's nails are too long or extra sharp.

I can't seem to come up with a scenario where the mattress could have anything to do with her ear injury, though.

Dogs lick things. They also eat and poop. Sometimes they bark.
