A little cut with no bleeding. Rabies?

Question

Asked for Male, 22 Years

I had a little cut on my thumb(inner side) and there was no bleeding at all, just a little blood clot visible. Now I used my thumb to pick up an earthen utensil which we use to feed milk to stray dogs in my street and that too with a leaf between the utensil and my skin. I also had a complete 5 shot rabies pep which ended last oct . Should I worry?
