Bat contact

2023-04-23 07:41:40
I think my question was not clear previously I was asking that my dog's whole vaccination was completed in january 2023  but as i'm worried that he came in contact with a bat yesterday so if i take him to the vet for one more rabies precautionary shot will it harm my dog any way ? Or is it safe?

"contact with bat" means what ? Did the bat bite the dog or vice versa ? If the dog has been bitten by bat then a full course of post bite rabies vaccination is a must

Since he is already vaccinated only in January 2023, his immunity will be up to the mark. Getting unnecessary vaccination in short intervals will reduce immunity. So kindly show him to your vet, get rabies antibody titer test, then if he really needs a booster, then get them
